My dear sister Leilua, you meant so much to so many! To me you were hope when I felt hopeless, you were strength when I felt weak, you showed me to find happiness in everything so it is because of your teachings I am able to accept and realize the reason for all of this. Thank you with love, respect and gratitude, Mindy
Time. I thought we'd have more of it. I was really planning on visiting you this summer while I was going to be in Washington for a little vacation. Not knowing your time was coming to an end. I wish I had more time to know more about the beautiful woman that you were. I do have one great memory though and this is how I will always remember you.
You were selfless and gave so easily when it came to family. Months before my wedding, I found a dress for the occasion but with the job I had at the time and not wanting to put more pressure on my parents who were already giving so much, I decided to reach out to my bridesmaids that I needed help paying for my dress. Almost immediately following that message, Pale reached out and said to not worry about it and that YOU Aunty had it covered. You gave without hesitation. You gave when I needed it the most and was too afraid to ask but stepped out and took the risk anyway. Of course your sister (my mom, the baby of the family) was upset at me for asking but I really appreaciated what you did for me at that time. I can only imagine how much you gave selflessly to anyone who was in need and reached out. That part of your character will always be remembered and will continue to live on through the lives you have touched by this not so easy task. I will always remember you this way, selfless.
Rest in peace my beautiful aunty. I love you so much!

The year was 1986. I asked my dad if I could stay in the states to finish my junior year at LHS and football season after he got orders to be stationed in Germany. aunty Lei offered to let me stay with her and uncle Tonu. I knew she loved me but it was a tough task to take care of a teen who was not always obedient at times. 😬😌 She offered her home and I was able to enjoy some memorable times that year. I still remember her voice even after all these years. I will miss you aunty Lei. Although we didn't spend much time towards your last days on this earth, I know you are rejoicing right now in heaven...maybe even catching a movie with your #1 sidekick..son and uso Tonu. Thank you once again for showing me love even when I could be a difficult kid ..at that time. Love you so much. Manuia Lau Malaga.
