Memories and Condolences
for Rodney Kamalii

Not sure what to say?





My deepest sympathy to the entire Kamalii family. I honestly can say to you all, I know excactly how you feel. Please know, if you need to talk, call a friend. Losing someone you love is something that no one can prepare themselves for, so seek frienship and love from family and friends to help you through this difficult time. In dealing with my own loss, I found that poems often described my grief and loss best, all the while giving me comfort.

Goodbye
You never said I'm leaving
You never said goodbye
You were gone before I knew it,
And only God knew why
A million times I needed you,
A million times I cried
If love alone could have saved you,
You never would have died
I life I loved you dearly,
In dealth I love you still
In my heart you hold a place
That no one else could fill
It broke my heart to lose you,
But you didn't go alone
Fo all my love went with you
The day God called you home.

To my dearest family, some things I'd like to say...
but first of all, to let you know, that I arrived okay.
I'm writing this from heaven. Here I dwell with God above.
Here, there's no more tears of sadness; here is just eternal love.

Please do not be unhappy just because I'm out of sight.
Remember that I'm with you every morning, noon and night.
That day I had to leave you when my life on earth was through,
God picked me up and hugged me and He said, "I welcome you."

It's good to have you back again; you were missed while you were gone.
As for your dearest family, they'll be here later on.
I need you here badly; you're part of my plan.
There's so much that we have to do, to help our mortal man."

God gave me a list of things, that he wished for me to do.
And foremost on the list, was to watch and care for you.
And when you lie in bed at night, the day's chores put to flight.
God and I are closest to you....in the middle of the night.

When you think of my life on earth, and all those loving years
because you are only human, they are bound to bring you tears.
But do not be afraid to cry; it does relieve the pain.
Remember there would be no flowers, unless there was some rain.

I wish that I could tell you all that God has planned.
But if I were to tell you, you wouldn't understand.
But one thing is for certain, though my life on earth is o'er.
I'm closer to you now, than I ever was before.

There are many rocky roads ahead of you and many hills to climb;
but together we can do it by taking one day at a time.
It was always my philosophy and I'd like it for you too...
that as you give unto the world, the world will give to you.

If you can help somebody who's in sorrow and pain,
then you can say to God at night......"My day was not in vain."
And now I am contented....that my life has been worthwhile,
knowing as I passed along the way, I made somebody smile.

So if you meet somebody who is sad and feeling low,
just lend a hand to pick him up, as on your way you go.
When you're walking down the street, and you've got me on your mind;
I'm walking in your footsteps only half a step behind.

And when it's time for you to go.... from that body to be free,
remember you're not going.....you're coming here to me.

How can it be? This is a question we ask ourselves over and over again. In our search for answers we are often left with even more questions which is why I choose to reflect and share my memories of someone that we can all agree that is much bigger than life itself. My relationship with Rodney was much more than your usual father-in-law, son-in-law relationship, it was more in line of a father and son relationship. He was the reason why I foster these feelings inside. I remember when I first met Rodney I was nervous not only because I was courting his beloved Evalani but I was a ‘pake’ man to boot! Well Rodney took care of all that by taking me in as one of his own from day one and over the years has shown me that he was a person with a kind heart and one that holds no judgment on anyone. There was something about him that was very comforting and I think it was the fact that he always listened to what you have to say and he respected your thoughts and feelings whether he agrees to it or not. He was a natural leader, never one to follow the norm and always willing to take the risk for something he believed in. This is how he lived his life, on his own terms with no regrets.

I have to say that Rodney had some crazy ideas and it was in Ke’anae during the first Chaves Family Reunion that I got to experience this first hand. Eh, was his idea fo’ go jump in the ocean and make like a fish! No we nevah find Nemo but we did find out that get some really sharp rocks in the ocean. Was it that it was so hot he wanted to just take a dip? Or better yet maybe he wanted to be one with the aina? I like to believe that he was just being Rod and we love him for that. His untimely passing is still a shock and will continue to be not only for myself but for everyone that was fortunate enough to have crossed roads with him. And if you ever met Rodney, even if it’s only once or twice, you were somehow influenced in some way by his eagerness to know who you are and what you do to his love and dedication to his family. You not only had a friend but you had a friend for life. I guess it’s safe to say that Rodney not only embodied the ‘aloha’ spirit but that he lived it too. I will miss him dearly because we shared a love for football, physical fitness, Vegas, food (especially black bean shrimp) and Hawaii. There has been a void created that will never be filled because Rodney is quite simply irreplaceable. Thinking of him saddens me because he is no longer here but it also strengthens and inspires me because of all the great memories that we share.

Thank you Rodney for everything you have given me, for being part of my life and for making me a better person. I feel proud to have known you and I hope to make you proud in return. You will always be remembered as a humble, dedicated and hard-working husband, father, grandfather and friend.

Mommy, this is a tough one for us all, but my heart goes out to you especially. I have to believe Daddy was called to do something pretty important and that you are here with us because you are truly one of the strongest women I know. You have always been your own person, but you knew Daddy so well, that you (can) think like him too and for (ME) that is extremely comforting. It feels awful that Daddy left us in his prime, but he has joined a lot of departed loved ones and they are watching over our family together. I hope your memories can bring you comfort and peace, plus knowing Dad always had your best interests at heart. I know we all feel so sad, but I can almost hear him whisper, "Don't cry, I'm in a better place." Take care, Mom. Dad always admired and bragged about your many strengths!!!

In My Pocket

I have memories in my pocket.
They rattle among the change.

My memories of you are treasures I carry wherever I go.

I will Love You Always,

Anthony

They are stored in bits and pieces, parts of a beautiful whole
They give me comfort when I think I am alone.

Yes, I have memories in my pocket, like so much other stuff I keep there.

But of all the treasures I have, it’s the memories of you that are the most precious.

Daddy, I miss you so much and wish you were still here. I know I was your stubborn child and probably the only person who truly didn't take all your lectures and preaching to heart but I would do anything to have one of those moments with you right now. Thank you for all the years we did have together. I will carry your memory always. Love you forever and may you rest in peace.

Kalia Kamalii-Mojarro

Daddy, I will miss you forever, you meant the world to me. You have always been my HERO, ever since I was a little girl. I never told you, but I hope my love showed you so! I will miss hearing you talk so passionately about topics dear to you, your laughter could fill any room and your smile could brighten my heart. It's hard not having you here, but I promise to carry your memories with me always and to strive to be a better person in honor of you. You left us too soon, but please rest in peace, YOU are truly in God's hands. Love you always...

Our sincere aloha and na ho'olana kaumaha (condolences) to you, Diane and your ohana. To us, Rodney was more than a brother and friend, he was the leader and spirit of the Kamalii side. Now lele ka hoaka (the spirit has flown away), we need to find our way with a renewed spirit to make him proud of what he taught us and the example he set for us.

Dear Auntie Diane, Evalani, Kalia and the Kamalii Ohana,

I can not believe the tower of a man, my Uncle Rodney Kamalii, is no longer with us physically. My heart goes out to the Kamalii Ohana and especially to Auntie Dianne as I know she shared an inspirational love with Uncle. You two were truly blessed to have such a strong enduring love and it was always nice to see you two make eyes at each other, or was it eyebrows?! I will miss Uncle Rodney's laugh, his whistle when he strolled along and his ever ready big beautiful smile. Family reunions will feel just a little more empty without him as he was always the life of the party. I am certain, my Uncle is with our heavenly father, his parents, Helen and Clarence Kamalii and his son, Lokene. Heaven is enjoying his smile, his laugh and even his whistle. I will remember the absolute passion Uncle Rodney had for life and for everything he believed in. It is a blessing and an honor to have been his niece and I will forever honor and cherish his memory.

Aloha pumehana,

Anne (Dahlin), Alex and Kenan Kontaratos

Reluctently..after pulling his ear...my husband consented to share this with all of you.


The Sum Total of Dah Man

The out pouring of Words about Rodney "Dah Man"...which

is so synonimous to another Word... that comes in the form

of a name, and that name is Dianne! .


Dah Man & Dianne...what a Beautiful Couple, even in High

School...when you saw Kamali'i Dah Man...there was always

that Wahine Kupu...His Special Lady, he would say, like that

Oldies but Goodies song of the '50s......... My Dianne.


There are many words...just as important as Dianne...that

discribes Rodney Dah Man. There is an Air Force Word...

that some of us former U.S. Airman continue to live by, and

that word is P.R.I.D.E. Pride...Professional Results In Daily

Effort...and Rodney lived it. In everything Rodney did, he

took Pride in it. Not so much in his own self esteem...but in

the many everyday task that he undertook.

There are two important words that need to be recognized

as well, And these two Hawaiian words are a perfect example

of Rodney Dah Man...the first is Aloha, most of us Kanaka's

or Hawaiian's for that matter, instinctively know that Aloha

means Love for One another,.. Love for Family, ...Love for

Our Savior who is always with us and all of you are here today

because of that word...Because we have known, that Aloha is

what Rodney personifided.... each and everyday no matter

where he was........Rodney Dah Man & Dianne ARE the
Ambassadors of Aloha...and all of you know that to be true,

and that is one of the many reason's why we are all here

today...and that is to share that Love and Aloha AND comfort

with Rod's 'Ohana....Rod's Family. The second important

Hawaiian word is simply Kamali'i.....The unabridged

Hawaiian Dictionary defines the word or words such as

Kamali'i as: Children....Kama meaning Child...and Ali'i really

alludes to "them of Royalty" Mr. Kamali'i...the name that

some of his classmates, and close friends called Rodney not

only out of respect...but also out of affection...what a lovely

persona....Dah Guy...With that handsome Smile on his face,
his Kamali'i...s his beautiful children...and their legacy, his

Mo'opuna's...his grand-children that will prove to be Na

Kamali'i...s of Integraty, Kamali'i....s of Joy, and most

importantly....Kamali'i....s the children of Iesu Cristo...

...Hawaiian Children are taught at a very early age to...Never

turn out 'Ohana / Family...Never to wear a disguise...for they

will always see Rod...when you look into their eyes....

These's are the Kamali'i...the children of the...Sum Total of

Mr. Kamalili...Dah Man!

Aloha No Wau Ia Oe...Makuahine Dianne ame' O'na Kamali'i.
(We Love You Mrs. Dianne and your Sweet Children)

E Kalamai ia oe' ame',Mahalo A Nui Loa Ke Kou Mako'u
(I'm sorry...and Thank you,...my three minutes have expired.)

Amene...

Eva and family,

I’m very sorry to hear about your father, and I’m sure it has been tough on your whole family. I know it can be a huge thing to try and understand, but I guess it’s not our job to understand, only to accept. My father also passed away before his time, with little to no warning, and I can only be grateful that we parted on good terms.

I feel fortunate to have been able to meet your father, and to spend several holiday afternoons and family events in his company. I remember him to be a warm and gracious host, and he always made me feel welcome in his home. It is always good to find someone to “talk Air Force” with, and I enjoyed sharing some of our Air Force experiences together.

Again, my sincere condolences, and may peace be with you all.

Aloha Ino Makuahine Dianne,

Our hearts are heavy for the lost of your Rodney. You and your "Ohana
will be in our prayers as you go through this difficult time of
transistion. The only words of comfort that I can think of at this time is, "Rodney's zest for life and his sincere love of his family will
never be forgotten."

The momories of him and his jovial demenor has permeated everyone who has had the profound pleasure of truly knowing him. As he was leaving our house after OUR Monthly Grinds, we had had the chance to "wala au" for a few minutes, and I had thanked him for bringing "dah ono-lecious" kaukau that I know "Oni you" could have made, and as I hugged him and kissed his cheek...I told him for Aloha You for us.

Dianne, on behalf of the H/A (Halawa / Aiea) Group...that Rodney was a "Cha-tahed Membah" of, Mahalo Nui Nui Loa Ke Kou Mako'u for sharing him and yourself wit us.

Both of you have made a huge
impact on our lives. If you have the urge for reach out, even if its to
just say "Howzit or sumtin" We will always be available, stop in too,
if you like...Our Doors Will ALWAYS be open to 'Ohana, Ae'...and you
are and will always be 'Ohana Ko'u Kapu.

He went on ahead, foa pave dah way, for all us guys to find him, on our
appointed day. Yeah, dea him, dat Good Looki' Buggah, wid Dat kolohe

From "Bang Wall or Closest to dah line"...he would wait for his turn
even @ poker, "Eh... befoa dah flop, eh no forget burn!

Always aftah dah Pule, wid his plate and Chop-sticks always at dah ready, he was always a Gentleman and waited for dah lady's.

And if kids was dea he would push dem along, cause he knew he'd be back...before dah Fat Lady sang her song.

His passion was 'Ohana...you could tell from dah start, and he was
alway directing each and everybodys part.

He would walk around, like dah Man wit dah Plan...but we always would know, "no was him...was Dianne!

As always in Life...wen we get dat final call, den oni our mo'opunas
