On Uncle George Na'ope's day of passing, thinking of the happiness he brought us. Here he is, always the kolohe, at his 80th birthday party. Cyril Pahinui and Melveen entertained us very well. Our halau was honored to be a small part of it. His mele and hula is in our hearts and lives on through his generous teaching.

  • at october 4 after traveling from Lanai to Maui at the Ferry Harbor Auncle told me... "Teachings will always survive while someone that has the knowledge will be longing to share it...and likewise there could be someone to learn from him or her... in that way the knowledge and sense of living won't be lost ever"...

  • Mahalo for sharing this.
