Sir Makere Rangiatea "Ralph" Love QSO JP (16 September 1907 – 22 August 1994) was a New Zealand Māori public servant and leader of Te Āti Awa.

One of his brothers was Eruera Te Whiti o Rongomai Love (18 May 1905 – 12 July 1942), a New Zealand rugby player, interpreter and military leader.

His parents, Wi Hapi Pakau Love and Ripeka Wharawhara Love (28 June 1882 – 6 April 1953), who had ten children, seven of whom survived infancy, belonged to senior families of Te Āti Awa, Taranaki and Ngati Ruanui, with connections to most of the iwi of Taranaki, Wellington and the northern South Island.

[citation needed] When the Second World War broke out Love joined the army, but was declared medically unfit for overseas service: in 1927 he had broken ribs playing rugby and developed tuberculosis.

[3] In January 1967 he lost office after being convicted of technically breaching the Local Authorities (Members' Contracts) Act 1954 when he voted to increase his own pay.

[5] He petitioned to have the Treaty of Waitangi enshrined in legislation, and attempted to gain a guarantee that Māori representation in Parliament would be retained or increased.
