By HINERANGI VAIMOSO

IT’S been two years since members of Aaron Hubbard Tarry’s family first mourned his death. But their grief resurfaced this month after relatives arrived at South Cemetery to find his head- stone damaged and items, including a 22-inch mag wheel, missing. Aaron, 21, was well known in the Papakura district and took his life in July 2009. His family unveiled the headstone with inscriptions of love and remembrance embossed across it a year later. Laying across the grave were fluffy dice, the grille from a Mitsubishi VR-4 – Aaron’s last project before his death – a steering wheel and a big blue ceramic fish from one of the younger family members, dad Doug Tarry says. A 22-inch mag wheel was embedded in the top of the marble headstone to indicate Aaron’s passion for building and driving cars, brother Reece says. Another 17-inch chrome mag also adorned the grave. The chrome mag and the steering wheel were taken just over a week ago. The 22-inch mag was also chiselled off and stolen. Sitting in the centre of the mag was a picture of Aaron which was later found face-up on the stone fence along Gat- land Rd. The steering wheel was Desecrated: Reece Hubbard Tarry is ‘‘gutted’’ thieves have stolen a 22-inch mag wheel and other items from his brother Aaron’s grave in Papakura South Cemetery. also located.

By HINERANGI VAIMOSO

ALARM bells are ringing over the rising number of illegal household rubbish fires. A study just released reveals seven out of nine rural households in Papakura and Franklin burn their rubbish in illegal outdoor fires. The Papakura District Council study found many residents still believe burning rubbish is a practi- cal way to dispose of it. And many felt the amount of waste they burn isn’t enough to cause a problem. Technically that’s true, council waste minimisation project man- ager Sue Martin says. ‘‘But if you combine everybody’s fires, the effects are sizeable. ‘‘Household rubbish contains plastics, batteries, oil, paint and other materials that when burnt release toxins into the air that are harmful to human health.’’ Some of those toxins are known carcinogens. The health effects are in addition to the environmental effects on soil and water and the ecosystems that inhabit them, she says. Every year the Burning up: Papakura District Council staff are alarmed at the number of people illegally burning off household rubbish.
