| About | What more important thing can you say about someone than "he was loved." Not only by his family but by his many friends. He loved playing Hawai'ian music. It was second only to his family. Since I moved to the mainland, I had only seen him on visits back home in 1994, 2000 and 2009. The last visit was after our Mom had a heart attack. Who knew, that sitting in the cafeteria of Kuakini Hospital having a bite to eat would be the last time I would ever see him? Like Joni Mitchell sang: "you don't know what you've got till its gone." Miss you Eldon and think of you often when my mind drifts back to the days of my youth and I allow myself to remember Sundays at the beach followed by shave ice at that little shop on Kapahulu Avenue. Baseball on Saturdays for years when we were growing up. Your excitement before going on your first date with Susan. Your going away to OSU and all your friends at the airport. So many memories. |
