To all who could not make it to tutu's funeral, you were missed. Mahalo for your kind words of encouragement.
Tutu's gone home to his maker. He was a good and faithful servant of God, without compromises.
It was an honour to be able to take care of him. Everyday of our life, while he was here with us, we let him know that we loved him very much and that we will cherish what he taught us.
To all of you who came to pay your last respects and to those who could not make it, mahalo. God Bless and keep you always.

My Aloha goes out to each and every one of you Ka`awa `ohana especially my tita Kapela. I was greatly shocked to hear of the passing of papa Ka`awa. I didn't get to know him before he could remember me but thats okay because he always taught I was Linda anyway. Papa Ka`awa has always had a special place in my heart since I met him for he is one well lived and precious kupuna and very dear to a dear one of mine. E kala mai for not being able to make it. All my love and condolences to you all `ohana Ka`awa. Ke akua pu. Aloha no,
Becky

Aloha To My Ohana, Our daddy has gone home with our Mama and the rest of our brothers and their grand children (great & great-greats) and we all know that is right where he wants to be. He has shared the word of god with everyone that he has come upon. He has blessed, dedicated, performed weddings, funerals and dined with many people that he has known for years and those that has come to him for spiritual purposes. What a man he has been and he was a simple man. All of his works that god has given him here on earth has paid off and now he sits with them amongst the highest of highest. Daddy, I will miss you but whenever my birthday comes around I will always remember what you said to me, "Lei you were my birthday present and I was so happy to be able to deliver my birthday present." Thankyou for your teachings and guidance that enabled us to instill this within our own children. I love you and I will miss you. All Our Love, Gary, Lei & Children
(Kauwe, Marcie, Eva, Linda, Josiah & Gary and our grandchildren)

What an awesome man our grandpa! He has lived and touch many lives and hearts in his years. I will always cherish the memories and life experiences. I remember my first New Years with the Kaawa `ohana and Grandpa would bring the family together before midnight to do a service and sharing. A memory that i'll never forget. Strength, knowledge, wisdom and a man of god was he.
A hui hou, until then
