Nice Neighbours: Matt, Amelie and Jireh Rudich of Papakura
This week's Nice Neighbours are Matt, Amelie and Jireh Rudich of Papakura. They were nominated by Yolanda Schuller.
On Yolanda's birthday, her husband had a major heart attack. They had an entire day planned, but then life threw a spanner into the works.
Yolanda asked Amelie to feed her cat, Koda, but Amelie's family went over and above. They cooked dinners two nights in a row and sent yummy treats during the tough time.
“I was really touched by their love, prayers and generosity. They are amazing. I couldn’t wish for better neighbours,” said Yolanda.
Nominate a Nice Neighbour you know, and they could be recognized on Stuff (and you both win a prize!).

Poll: Do you think this is probably the reason?
Work changes, divorces and other life events are probably behind many of Waikato’s loss-making house sales, a realtor says.
Recent figures revealed more than 10% properties resold in Hamilton and Waikato District went for less than what the sellers had paid.
