“While living in Hawaii in the 60s
and 70s when we were younger,
I was fortunate to hear Keola
and his brother Kapono play and sing when they
were young.
Don't miss this one!!!” - Mary Ann Dow, SON member
“I
oversaw dormitory life at Kamehameha Schools.
There, I
couldn’t get Keola to study as he preferred to play guitar,
which
his mom knew, and was sent to boarding school without a
guitar.
He’d bug
me for my guitar. I gave up geting
him to study, passed him my 1937 Martin D18,
and
chided ‘at least get good with the guitar’.
Today,
he is oooooooooo so good.” - Herb Kai,
Event
organizer and Suquamish Foundation
trustee
