I recieved this email from Ben this morning.

Lynn,

I thought I'd let you know about this since Howard Dicus has been a regular contributor to the Hawaii Radio and Television Threads. It's on the KITV Island Breakfast Blog. http://www.thehawaiichannel.com/thismorning/5250151/detail.html Thanks!

Aloha,
Ben.

I was very much saddened when I heard about Marilyn passing away this week. Marilyn was Howards wife and a great friend to whomever met her personally. Her departure from this world is definately a loss especially to those who knew her personally.

For Marilyn: Me ke aloha pau ole a hui hou with everlasting love and affection until we meet again

Thank you so much for your condolences, and apologies for the delay in saying so, but as you might imagine it has been a busy couple of weeks. For almost three years my work has been a welcome distraction from a sad situation at home.

But Marilyn's own determination to live as much as she could for as long as she had was itself a welcome distraction, and a lesson in how to live that I will never forget. Marilyn had more life in her while riven with cancer than some people do during the best years of their lives.
