Kenneth A. Narahara

All Honor to His Name

I worked for Dr. Narahara in 1987 as a Research Assistant/Programmer at Harbor-UCLA REI (as it was known then). He was a good man who took a chance on a young kid straight out of college. He gave me my start in the working world, and I will never forget him for that. He did have a sly sense of humor to go with his quiet demeanor and great intelligence. Always treated me with respect. I'm sorry I'm finding this now a year after he passed. He did a lot for a lot of people. May he rest in...

I knew "Kenny" as he was called in High School. All the students were in awe of his brilliance and quiet yet quick sense of humor. Our high-school had its 100th anniversary a year ago and Ken came home to attend. Our group had the best time and now I will cherish the time we got to spend with Ken. He was a treasure!

I had the pleasure and honor to have conversations with you your pleasant disposition and handsome smile saying good morning and good afternoon to me every time I opened the heart station door for you I remember our last conversation we had I mentioned my promotion and you said to me good for you , you deserve it I said thank you for always being nice to me He knew so many people and yet always remembered my name he will be missed. may you rest in peace, you have a special part in my heart...

My Sincere Condolences to the Narahara Family. Dr. Narahara as a new Grad RN many moons ago; I was would be in "awe" when I would listen in on your 4W rounds (and also a tad scared of you). I´m glad that through my Cardiology Nursing Journey I was able to see that not only were you so incredibly smart but you had a jovial quirkiness. May you RIP Dr. Narahara

Dr. Narahara was one of the best bosses I have ever had. I have missed him since I left Harbor UCLA. My condolences to his family.

Dr. Narahara. I took this photo of you at your retirement party at Harbor UCLA Medical Center 4 West. It depicts you so well. Quietly and keenly observing, and probably reflecting at this tremendous juncture in your life. Thank you for the many years of mentorship and leadership. You leave a lasting influential impact on so many lives. Rest in Peace.

So sorry to hear of his passing he was wan amazing practitioner and person. I have fond memories of our conversations at Harbor he truly did spread his zen.

We can't express enough what a wonderful Doctor you were very Rare. We appreciate your excellent service and Everlasting Care. REST IN PEACE DR. NARAHARA. Sarojinie De Silva 4 West PCU Nurse Harbor UCLA Medical Center.
