The family wishes to thank all her caregivers and the staff at Wilcox Medical Clinic and Wilcox Memorial Hospital, and her wonderful island friends, all of whom helped to make her life a little better and show and share with her their Aloha. Mahalo Nui Loa. Her remains will be cremated at the Garden Island Mortuary and a memorial service will be held March 10 by the pier on Hanalei Bay at 10 a.m.
