Joe Nunufolau
Joe Nunufolau (Apia) along with John Tavita (Mangere) and Shane Robinson (Waiuku) received silver medals for saving four people trapped in a van which was on fire after a collision with a car on SH22 on 8 June 2008. Soon after the rescue, the van was engulfed in flames. (A further silver medal was earlier this year presented to Karl Hogan, who lives overseas, for his role in this rescue).
