Richard Kuaana, Roz, Robert Kalaluhi and Alexis Cheong stop for a Kwik-Pose….
Richard lives in Moanalua and has access to all these beautiful plants and flowers. He is an expert in flower arrangements….Our dorm was always adorned with these fresh flower arrangements throughout.
It was great meeting up with Robert who contacted us nearly a month before the reunion….
Linda Kapuniai Rosehill and her husband Bill with Noa Chong standing. To those who have never been to the Alumni Luau…..you find your section with the signs posted. (Class of 1969) You sit, talk story, take photos…..listen to music, and then you are served by the class who is preparing to have their 30th year the following year. Long lines of servers walking out in an orderly manner with the trays of food and a “luna” guiding them and laying the plates before you. After all are served, the extra foods are brought out and you are asked if you want more of what is left as they carry it.
In a plastic covered see through tray, they had the cakes, fresh pineapples, haupia and kulolo….these were spread throughout the tables.
Joe and Julie Ellen find time to chat. There was a “country store” with all kinds of produce and other items and other booths selling all kinds of gift items…. Kamehameha Souvenir Items by the Alumni Office, signature items from Golf Shirts, Caps, etc………Quilted Blankets, pillow cases, table covers and much more.
There was a water-hole booth with drinks, water, soda….you purchase the scripts and but all the drinks you want. Great entertainment and at the end of the night……we sang the School Song and while people were catching the bus back to their cars and dorms, “Kapena” entertained live at the west side of the tents. Priceless evening.
A couple of you have written in the last couple of days, “where is Walt?” Walt is one of our Core Group Leaders and he was on a trip to Wash. D.C. for his work. We missed him too. Here, is 2 of wee3kaneakua.com Eda and their beautiful daughter Emily. Walt introduced our talent presentation in 1999 (find the video) and is the person that reads the names of those who have passed on at the Sunday Memorial Service. This year, Pat & Pammy filled in and did a great job.
We have some sharing coming up….a few comments and reflections that we will be sending out to you from some of our ohana out there. Mahalo to those of you who have written to us. Photo Credits: PNP ENTERPRISES….all of these photos from from Pat and Pammy
Since coming back from Alumni Week, I have sent about nearly “18” messages of reflections and so far, no one went ask to be removed. In 1999, three people went asked to be removed…… Like Herman “BOB” Meyers told us back then, that is why the computer has the [DELETE] button. Coming up next……thoughts from Arma-Lee a person who never come and Bobby Lu a person who came. Until then…aloha. This is sent on my lunch hour. Mahalo to my boss for his patience with me. The Hui O Horner, R & F
