Subject: RE: Bougainville Circular Feb 2017

Hi Jon,

My dad was Ambrose Gorogo & mum; Mary Gorogo. Dad managed the Panguna supermarket from it’s opening to the end. None of us have returned to Bougainville yet , but I’m sure we will one day.

Dad’s entire working life was with Awara Enterprises Limited (AEL) from the supermarket in Arawa to Panguna.

I think the entire family flew out from Bougainville in May/June 1989 to Port Moresby where we have been since. I was 17, the next 16, 15 and then 10, 9 and 5 years old or thereabouts.

Mum and Dad have since passed on many years ago and my other siblings all keep in touch with their Loloho, Bovo and Panguna ex-school mates, neighbours as well as our Panguna School Principal – Peter Comerford.

That’s us in a nutshell !  

1. Elton Gorogo
2. Cassandra (Gorogo) Whitchurch
3. William Gorogo
4. Patrick Gorogo
5. Christopher Gorogo

We’d love to be added into your Circular; I’ve copied my family into this email. Our youngest Christopher has cerebral palsy and we help care for him since our parents passing. He was only a 5 when we left Bougainville.  

Thank you for the opportunity to be added and we look forward to any initiatives where we could give back to Bougainville in some form or another.

Kind regards,

Melissa M Gorogo
