Kaui, I love you so much! I always knew you were one of the lucky and blessed ones.. All that talent, all your abilities, the cracked sense of humor and the amazing, super-human strength.. all in ONE KAUI?? Hmmm, ain't fair! Until I finally realized, I'm the lucky one who got to know you, eat your cooking, watch you smile, laugh with you, near you, at you, and more than that, watch you laugh even harder at me! Ha ha! Thank you so much for blessing us all!

PS, Please send my love to your mom and Sapi too. Lucky you guys!

"Isa Kaui",uttered nana wen we told of Kaui's passing...she remembers her on her mission, Nana and Tata were living in San Bruno and Sis Sika would stop by to visit and they would wait to have a meal with her and her companion. Kaui your smile I will always cherish and your sweet personality lingers behind after you leave us. We will always remember you and please give my love to my kickball captain on iosepa street back in the old day...your mom. Love you plenty....Your Fijian Ohana...Bale Damuni Tuisavura.

Sika,
You must have a REALLY BIG MANSION waiting for you in heaven to require both Jeniel and Kaui to be called home in such a short time of each other. Thank goodness for the sweet peace the gospel brings to us at difficult times like this to remind us that Kaui has merely graduated from earth and is ready for the next phase of her eternal progression. Kaui's happy, fun-loving personality taught us all how to enjoy life, and to serve happily and for that, we will keep her memory alive. To Brennan, Braden, Kawehi and Jenae... how blessed you are to have Kaui as your sister... eternally. Take good care of your dad.

We love you Sika Family,
the Moe Family (Jeniel's neighbors)

Dear Bishop Viliami Sika and family:
Sometimes in life we cannot explain why things happen, but the Gospel has helped us build a bridge to have an understanding that God is the Almighty!! We will have a Eternal Family and we can be together. Words just cannot express the sadness that my family has felt ever since the passing of your beautiful wife, Janeil, and now your beautiful daughter. Life is eternal. We are eternal beings. We lived as intelligent spirits before this mortal life. We are now living part of eternity. Our mortal birth was not the beginning. Death, which faces all of us, is not the end. We love you Bishop and may Kaui's smile and sweet spirit linger through your mind and your children's through this time of sadness and sorrow. May peace be with you. 'Oku mau si'i 'ofa atu kiate koe moe taufa kuo to tonu 'iho loto fale. May the spirit of OHANA and Aloha create an everlasting rainbow of sweet memories of Kaui to all of you that had the opportunity of being embraced by her sweet smile, her voice and her addicting LOVE.

Au Domoni Iko

Dear family of Kaui. I am so sorry for your loss. You don't know me, but your beautiful family sang in my cousins room at the hospital. His name is Lamont Chappell. I want you to know how much of an impact your beautiful spirits had on the family. I wasn't there when you sang, but I have been told that the spirit that was felt was enormous. My uncle said he had never felt the spirit so strong. Be comforted in knowing that through this difficult time you will be comforted and blessed. You have already blessed my family.
