"Mom why do the best die so soon?""When you are in a garden which flowers do you pick first?""The most beautiful ones."There is no argument that Baba is one of the most beautiful beings that ever lived. Inside and out. Without a doubt Baba has the kindest most caring heart of anyone I have ever met. He would do anything in his power to help one in need. Always putting others before himself. He truly enjoyed bringing people together. He was so proud of how and where he was born and raised. It brought him so much joy and excitement to show others where he came from and what Hawaii is all about. He wanted to make sure that any outsider felt the power of aloha. He was the definition of a gentleman. Not only was he extremely handsome Baba was such an insanely talented man. The more I got to know him the more in awe I was of everything he was capable of. From tow surfing to dirt bike riding to MMA fighting to singing and playing the ukulele and drums and so much in between this man could literally do it all. He was a true go getter. Anyone who knows him knows his smile and the light and love in his face and in his eyes instantly lit up the room. He was so goofy and loved to do whatever he could to make people laugh. It is a shame for a man who was so alive with so many talents and so many plans to be taken from us so soon. All we can do now is keep his legacy alive by being a little more like him. Courageous, strong, curious, confident, kind, caring, friendly,ambitious, silly, fun, proud and loving. He wasn't afraid to go after every single thing he wanted to do.  He also loved making new friends who usually became family.  At this time I ask that you donate anything you can to help the family with all of the unexpected expenses during this tragic time and thank you in advance for any little thing you can do to help. Aloha!! http://youtu.be/4eAdb37f7u0 ‌
