izpigpower do you have no life? I've seen you leave some of the most moronic comments on almost every vid about IZ.

Does making yourself look like an idiot make you feel better?

If you're not a fan then why do you continue to comment and watch his vids?

Honestly Grow up, you're pathetic.

99% of those who watch these vids don't have the want or need to have to come across some lame comment left by yourself or others who share your desperate need to attention.

To superrick2 and izpigpower

did it ever occur to you , that iz may have struggled with his weight issues himself , and that despite those problems , he was still able to share with us , you included , some beautiful music ?

It's a shame that you have chosen to ignore his positive contribution and instead want to speak so vilely of the dead .

Mel was their guitar player and one of the original members. I think Sam Gray played the pakini (washtub bass)

Can anyone tell me who Melvin is? And what ever happened to that kid who played that washtub bass? I think there is a market for Hawaiian music history.

@mbelle131 Yes and earth is far more beautiful because he was here! God loves Iz and so do I!

To superrick,izpigpower, and oldschoolchicas: Israel and Skippy battled many years since adolescence with their health issues. As a nurse who knew and cared for them. Just enraged reading your comments. I feel sorry for you, because I know you all must be really insecure and unhappy in your life to be disrespectful towards someone who shared special gifts with people not only in hawaii, but worldwide. I will pray for you that you will find god and cleanse your soul.

@oldschoolchicas You are a sorry human being. Did you take into consideration his daughter may read your comment? You don't have to watch the videos much less comment. You should learn the old saying, "if you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all." I feel sorry for you. You probably have such a terrible life that you feel you need to make such a disrespectful comment about someone who has passed on to make yourself feel good. The world would be better without you in it.

No matter what people say,Iz was someone who touched many hearts and was so talented. I value his life and see his purpose. I know that Heaven is a more beautiful place with him there.
