Yes, It would be good to meet you and your grandfather Lawrence. My Mother will be in Hawaii next January, she still remembers your Grandfathers brother Stanley. If possible it would be good for them to see each other too.

Comments:Kona, Having problems with my e-mail, wanted to make sure you got this. It was great hearing from you and finding more Ohana. I thought you should know that Clarence Halona Aki (Father) was listed as POW-MIA (Prisoner Of War-Missing In Action) on August 12, 1950 during the Korean War. He was with the 5th RCT (Regimental Combat Team) 555th Hq Bn (155 Howitzer). As of now in the DPMO (US Government) he is still listed as a POW.

As for me I spent almost 5 years US Army Active and 25 years Army Reserves. I currently work for Los Angeles County Harbor UCLA Medical Center. I have been in the mainland since 1950 and this year in September 2003 I decided it was time that I found my Ohana. I spent a week in Keihi and found my Aunty Karen and Alice. Got to visit my cousins. Also, got to see the old house where Grandparents Samuel and Alice lived at. Tutu Alice is buried at Waioloa Cemetery next to the Church in Lahaina. Even got to see Tutu Mima burial behind the house. I spent 2 weeks and talked with My Aunty Nalani in Oahu. My Aunty Alice lives in Maui.

I didn't know, but the name Aki was the Hawaiian name given to the Apo's and the just kept using the name. The Mormon Church in Maui has a copy of the diposition given when Samuel and Alice Aki requested for ceritificate of Birth. Tutu Mima was one of the person giving a statement. Tutu Mima gave serveral statements for some of the people from Lahaina, Maui. I have copies of this and will be more than happen to send you them if you would like.

It is good to find My Heart and Oahana's. May you and the family have a Wonderful Thanksgiving and May God continue to Bless All Of You and Keep You In His Heart. Aloha ahui Hou, Cuzn Tommy

Reply:Aloha Melanie
We are so blessed to make contact with Aunty Angelita's family, after so many years. Although my Dad, your uncle Rudy is not with us to cherish this moment. I'm sure he, your mom, and our Grandfather have already had their own reunion in heaven above. Before Dad passed away we found out about your mom, but we weren't sure if she had surviving children. May God Bless you, Happy Holidays, & Stay in Touch.

Reply:Aloha Jana
Yes, I kept your email, when you mentioned he was at one of the Pi'imauna Ohana reunions. Also Uncle Paki gave us one of their family calendars, with all their kids. My mom does remember Gladys, they used to play together during their hanabaddah days at Kaupo. As for Aunty Awa, I really wanted to meet her, mentioning her efforts is the least that I could do. The memory of her diligence lives on.

Aloha ahui Hou,

Reply:Aloha Alcian,
My name is Kona Jugoz, Louis Haupu Kanuha was my 2nd Grandmothers brother. My 2nd Grandmothers name was Elizabeth Hailani Haupu, she was born at Kaupo, Maui. Elizabeth had 10 keiki, her fourth child was my Grandmother Anastacia Hamole Ho'opi'i. My Tutu is 91 years old, she is alive & well on Maui. Tutu is the source of the information I have on the Haupu page of The Koa Tree, Our Ohana Site. If you are Louis Kanuha's Granddaughter then we are Ohana.
