Tivaini Fomai's big heart, selfless attitude and humble demeanour won him a nomination for this year's Person of the Year.
His wife Moira nominated him for the worthy title and could not fault him.
"He would try to save the world if he could, he is that type of guy. He has taught me a lot and manages to see the positive in everything."
From bringing up a family to getting a bachelor's degree in sport and recreation, nothing seems to much for Mr Fomai.
"I just want to help people live their dreams and achieve their goals as life is too short."
