"One of eight children of Pākehā pioneer settlers to Katikati in New Zealand, Rachael McCauley lived her entire life in the Bay of Plenty town. Her husband had part of his his leg amputated following a farm accident as a child and wore a prosthesis. Rachel was a kind soul, always ready to help anyone in trouble and spending many hours working in her garden. Her home became a favourite place to visit for the neighbourhood children and she also helped to raise several of her own grandchildren. Three she took permanently into her care following the death of her daughter at age 31. She was my great grandmother."
