Kikuye Yamamoto's Obituary
Celebrating the Beautiful Life of Kikuye Yamamoto
August 9th, 1922 - March 19th, 2026
We gather to celebrate the long and remarkable life of Kikuye Yamamoto, who was born on the island of Kauai, Hawaii, and filled 103 years with kindness and hard work. Her journey touched many and leaves a bright example of dedication.
Growing up in Kauai, Kikuye became known for her kind heart and tireless spirit. Those qualities guided every chapter of her life and set a steady course that friends and family admired.
Her kindness and hardworking nature were a steady source of strength for her niece Marion Tsue and nephew Wayne Nakamitsu. They knew they could always count on her thoughtful support and clear sense of purpose.
Kikuye passed away in Waipahu, Hawaii, carrying the same grace that marked her days. While we miss her, we find joy in remembering a life lived fully and generously.
Today we share stories, smiles, and gratitude for all she gave. Celebrating Kikuye’s beautiful life keeps her warm spirit shining in every act of kindness we pass along.
