Aloha ka kou e Koma, Kawika, Kani, a me na ohana Allen! I want to tell all of you what a wonderful family your Mom and Dad raised. While I didn't have the pleasure to meet your Mom, I know she was a caring and loving as your Dad. Together, they brought up three great sons two of whom have the best families, themselves I'm sorry for your loss but I know you are happy that your Mom and Dad are together again. Together, they are watching over your families with well founded pride in their hearts. Thank you for generously accepting my Mother into your circle. The time she spent with your Dad and your families means so much to her. Your Dad's humility, warmth, and caring friendship are something she will never forget. Her friends and family are so happy that they were able to create such a special bond of friendship. For my part, Ed was a wonderful friend. We laughed and joked together, we shared war stories and (most of all) we just enjoyed each other's company. Ed didn't judge me; he accepted me for who I am. For that, I will forever be indebted to him. The happiness he brought into our family will not be forgotten. The three of you (Tom, Dave, and Danny) are the closet brothers I've known. Thank you, to each of you, for accepting me into your family, as well. Be happy your Dad is resting, once again, with your Mom. He leaves behind a family to make any father proud. He touched so many people in so many ways, I am honored to be one of them. His memory will live on in my heart. Me ke aloha, Tom##imported-begin##Tom Hoots##imported-end##
