In recognition of the prestigious Order of Ti’afau conferred upon him in 1995 – in recognition of his many services to the country – Reverend Oka Fauolo was accorded a state funeral.
His coffin was draped with the national flag and shoulder-carried by Police pall bearers.
“Reverend Oka was a man who was not easily swayed by others’ opinions,” Prime Minister Tuilaepa Sailele Malielegaoi noted in his state eulogy during the reverend elder’s funeral service at the Safotulafai EFKS church Tuesday morning.
