Harry,
I was just sharing with Glenn Gaspar's wife about how a big-hearted brother you are, how a model of Christ you are for me. It was a blessing and honor to help scatter your ashes out at Ala Moana. Solo bike squad lined up along the channel and saluted as their sirens played and the bagpipes played amazing grace, I was all choked up. We took out your ohana in the waa, there were numerous other boats and the police helicopter came out dropped flowers. The ocean was covered with flowers after your wife dropped your ashes, we said pule and sang Ho'onani in tribute to you. I was sad to lose you here but was filled with joy because you were going to be with Jesus. Pave the way for us bruddah, I see you when I get there.
Love and aloha,
Vern
