With our Creator and mighty God above granting me favor, is from the depth of my soul and core that I extend my heart felt and deepest condolences to Marisa Lona and the entire family.
Keono, I could only wish for more of those man to man conversations we had long go. Look at us now Keono... we are here, some in spirit, some in person. We are strong, and because of you, we will embrace one other with love as you rest with our father God in heaven.
We are connected, you will forever be remembered...The glue that binds us...And keeps us together, forever.
A young son and father called home way too soon. However, our heavenly father has called you home and we all miss you. We love you, Keono, and you are now forever within each and every one of our hearts. You left us three little angels... And we will cherish them. They are the very best of you. We will continue to assemble in your honor... We are here. You see us. I love you, Keono. I will see you soon.
Love,
Big Correll

I met Keono just after his 1st birthday. Keono was born popular. Every little girl in the Church wanted to carry him. When he started walking they all wanted to walk him. He handled all this attention magnificently and treated all his fans with love and joy. Everybody loved Keono thanks to his Mother sharing him with us.
When he was eight, Marisa brought him and his little brother, Cole, for a visit to our home in Southern Arizona. I was in kitchen and Keono came in looking for something to do. I showed him the "scoop and sweep" technique for dry ingredients and he got that job done in a flash. He was very dexterous for his age so I showed him how to use the Chef's knife and set him loose on the vegetables. At this point Marisa looked into the kitchen and freaked. But it was fine. Keono was using that knife like a pro.
Our neighbor's quarter horse, Reba, met Keono the next day and from that point on would run to him whenever she saw him outside. This also gave his Mother pause the first time she saw him with that big horse. First it was a big knife then a big horse but Marisa adjusted to her son's new adventures wisely as mothers often do. Animals were drawn to Keono. He loved our dogs and cats too.
I am glad to see that Keono had many good friends who loved him while he was here with us. My sympathy to all of you and his family, especially Marisa. I'm so sorry for this tragic loss. May God comfort you and bless you as only He can. We can honor Keono's life by letting his indomitable spirit and his quest for excellence inspire us as we go forth to live our lives without our beloved friend.

So many moments and memories we’ve shared. He always knew how to put a smile on a frown face. Or just a smile in general, consistently you would be rapping about anything that would come to mind, I can remember the words you told me as you held pen and paper in your hand “I will make music 1day” and sure enough achieved that. Always stayed true to his passion.. Keono my dear friend will always hold a very close space in my heart. You will forever be missed

Keono was more than a friend to me, He was like a brother. We had great times together endless conversions about what he wanted to accomplish musically and just in life. I'm proud to say I was blessed to know him we created great material together musically. And I'll cherish that forever. Thank you bro. I love you.
