It'll start at 4:30 PM HST and Aunty Cha said they're expecting 25,000+ to flock to Queen's Surf. Mom booked us at the Sheraton for the weekend and as I look out the lanai, about a thousand people have already assembled in front of the stage to get a good seat for the celebration of his life.
Mom and I were invited (to represent my late father, a former Waikiki Beach Boy) to paddle out for the scattering of Don Ho's ashes. I still can't believe it. It's really an honor.
Anyway...hopefully y'all will be able to stay up till the end. Hoku Ho (Perfect Day-Legally Blonde) will be singing her dad's signature song "I'll Remember You" and I'm sure there won't be a dry eye on the beach after that.
Waikiki entertainment will never be the same. |
Wow you'll definitely have to let us know how that goes! That is a pretty huge honor. What is a Waikiki Beach Boy?
