Aloha, I am proud to say God has blessed me with a very wise and talented father. I loved him with all my heart. I have not met any other man such as he. He has taught me many things, especially how to be forgiving and how that brings happiness. I would not be where I am today if not for his words of wisdom. Being the 3rd eldest is special.I have an older brother and older sister to look up to and 7 younger siblings to look after. I love you dad.
A Hui Hou til we meet again.

My name is, Charlotte Leimomi (Travis) Vela (AKA) Bone'z. I am the 29th child. Oops! -20. I apologize for not being there, and Dad said, "Myna-Myna, Let-ah-go, No Can! No Can!" So anyway Dad, "Hauoli La Hanau". You and Mommy rest in peace. I thank God for blessing me, with You & Mommy. I love you both with all my heart for now, and all eternity.
A Hui Hou...
Your one and only,
Bone'z & Ohana

Not many people come into your life that make a big difference. John however, is one of those "special" people. Through his caring he profoundly changed my life. As most of you know John made such an impression in my life we named our son in honor of him. His memory will live on in our family, he will be missed and he will always be loved. May God Jehovah bless John and his Ohana.

I am the sixth child of the family.
My name is, Cheryldean Kuuipo (Travis) De Guzman. Unfortunately, I am not able to make it to my fathers services. Therefore, I am grateful to be signing this book to express my love for him. I thank God for blessing me with the perfect Dad. He has been a great example to me, on how I should honor and live my life.
Malama Pono, A Hui Hou, Dad.
I Love You Eternally.
