Statement on behalf of Jonah Lomu’s family
Mervyn Quirk, father-in-law of Jonah Lomu:
“We wish to thank all the people who have expressed their sympathies for our family at this incredibly difficult time.
“We are truly touched by the outpouring of love for Jonah and the support for our family.
“While we grieve for a husband, father, son, brother and good mate, we know that many people in New Zealand and around the world are mourning a very special individual.
“We are continuing to discuss with various parties, how we can best celebrate Jonah’s life and allow people to commemorate his achievements and contributions during an all too short time on this earth.”
Details of a memorial service and funeral arrangements will be announced as soon as they are finalised over the next few days.
