Yes mom would dance hula and dad's brother uncle Kane also known at the time as Big Blah was a base player. I'll never forget seeing him sitting down and playing his base like a guitar. Maybe that's why he was called Big Blah. Grandma and grandpa would also play. So both sides of the family were musicians. We also have Sol Hoopii the steel guitar player. Uncle Sol's last name is Kaaiai but he dropped it for entertainment. Grandpa's name is David Kahoaka Hoopii Kaaiai.

My sincere condolences to your family. May you find comfort found in the words of Isaiah 25:8
My Uncle Willy was a funny one and the music he played and sang with daddy and the rest of his brothers and sister at all our parties, it will always be in my heart. I will miss him so much and am so glad I was able to see him the last time I was home. One of many memories is him telling us always he was the good looking one of the boys for he had all the hair. haha I love you Uncle and truly miss you.
I love you Aunty and please know that all my love is with you and the family.
With all my love,
Leslie
I am so sorry for your loss. No pain is worse than the pain of losing someone that you love. Though the pain you are feeling must seem unbearable, remember that you are not alone. "God is our refuge and strength, a help that is readily found in times of distress." (Psalm 46:1) Pray to him for strength. God understands your pain and he cares for you. (1 Peter 5:7) He will help you through this difficult time. (Isaiah 41:10)
