Aloha All,
For the past 7 years, I have been keeping an "annual" list of our fallen Brethren. The list is shared with other HPD organizations, for inclusion into their respective annual events, and vice versa.
Due to the time that most of us were in the Department, the 60's, a lot of our Brethren have been passing on. The purpose of this email is to impart basic information on those that have left us. I also have included a little Prayer List below the Roll Call List AND, a little note from our former mayor, Eileen Anderson, wife of the beloved, Cliff Anderson.
Here goes:

That is an awful lot of Brethren, so far, for this "event" year. My list above, will cap off towards the end of August 2011, when the updated list will then be read at our 7th Annual HPD Big Island Ohana 10-3 on Aug 20th. That is 4 1/2 months from now, and that list will grow.
I received a Thank You note in the mail, from Eileen Anderson, wife of our Brother, Clifford Anderson. She said funeral arrangements will be made later in HAWAII (they live in Lacey WA) and that it is okay to give out their mailing address, for anyone wanting to write her: Mrs. Eileen Anderson, 8245 Camano Lp., NE Lacey, WA, 98516.
(Anyone having information of ANY other former HPD personnel, officer or civilian, that has left us, please email me directly at Kamehameha669@hotmail.com, so I can include them on our master list. Sad thing is this: Generally, if any former member of HPD DOES NOT RETIRE, the Blue Light, HPRA, etc., etc., etc., DOES NOT LIST THEIR PASSING. Theoretically then, if someone gave 22 years of their life to HPD, moved to Alaska, and passed on 15 years later, UNLESS the family lets us know, NO ONE WILL EVER KNOW, our Brother or Sister has passed on. Sad).
PLEASE LIFT UP IN PRAYER, THE FOLLOWING INDIVIDUALS[/b][/u]
Fred Ornellas
Boyd Andrade
Clem Enoka
Charlie Langer
Joe Ledbetter
Mitchell Chang
Larry Mehau
Francis Keala
Fred Schultz

There has to be many other Brethren and their families, that are in need of prayer. Please advise, so that we can lift all of them up in prayer. God knows their needs and He can answer, by the prayers of Our Faith in Him, according to His Will.
LASTLY, via a second email, I will announce our 7th Annual HPD Big Island Ohana 10-3 scheduled for Aug 20, 2011, here in Hilo.
Aloha, lary.
