Aloha All,
With sadness, I am reporting the passing of our Big Island Brother, Charlie Wakita. I initially received a call from Brother Shannon Hart about 20 minutes ago, Friday, 24 April. I then called his home within 10 minutes, to verify with his family, before I spread the word and ask for everyone to offer up their prayers. His wife Momi told me "yeah, that rascal left me".
She related that some time between 12 midnight and 7 am this morning, 24 April 2009, he had passed away in his sleep. He was not ill.
Please join us in praying for his family, wife Momi, and others. Also, please watch the obituaries column, for the services. Momi said it will be only a one day thing...Charlie did not want anything big. Anyone here on the Big Island that will be attending, please wear one of your annual HPD Big Island polo shirt.
