TAHIB BIN ALI: We have found a Singapore ID Certificate belonging to a Tahib Bin Ali. My father was apparently with the Deep Freeze Base???? He was on a Naval ship in the 1950's that docked in Dunedin, New Zealand. He hopped off and went into hiding, renaming himself Thomas Rangi. Married Helen Salter and had four children. He spent many times on ships docked in Lyttleton, New Zealand when we were young, lived a quiet life and loved us children. Unfortunately he drowned while saving me at Sumner Beach, New Zealand in 1974. This was when we discovered our dad was not who he claimed to be, although we have never received any clues as to his true identity only assumptions. My Dad told my mother he was a Philipino and she accepted that and asked no further questions.We'd just love to find my dads roots and discover some sense of belonging. If anybody can help me I would really appreciate it. Many thanks
