We lost a member of our hānai ʻohana this year. Is this him?
Does anyone know who these men are memorialized on the wall near Kumukahi lighthouse at 1 corner, Kapoho area? I think the first person might be Uncle Whit. He was a very special person we visited regularly for over a decade. He was a close friend and mentor to my husband and son. He lived a bit near there, and had a big group of artist friends and family so I think this might be a loving portrait of him. If this is him, we’d like to make him a lei and say our goodbyes. We didn’t know about the funeral in time. Thanks in advance.
I’m also curious about the identity of the second person if anyone has any info. Also, I don’t know anything about the artist, but their style is lovely. I wonder if it might be the same person that did the image of Israel Kamakawiwoʻole near the roundabout on the way from Keaʻau to Pāhoa. It looks like the same stencil style. I like all of these art pieces and they make me smile every day when I drive by them.
