cont... Kai's Farewell



The SISTERS with Dad. Tima, our Fijian sister, joined us. During the brief moment that my Dad lived in Vallejo Tima's family took Nee and Trish under their wing. Been a minute since I saw her last, but it's just like we've never been separated. She's a crack up. LOVE her to pieces.

The BROTHERS prepping Kai to step out and serve. Fixing the tie, dusting the jacket.



Kai's BROTHERS messin' around.



During our time in Tonga we were able to bring 8 babies to the U.S. to be adopted. The beautiful girl on the end was the first miracle that came. I think she was 3 days old when she touched down on US soil. She was adopted and sealed to Lani's brother and his wife. She's BEAUTIFUL both in an out and it is always amazing to see her and KNOW the life she left behind. And would you believe that the tall blonde man is 1/4 Tongan? Well he is and he's my cousin on my mom's side.



Dad and his youngest brother, Joe.
