THANK YOU FOR YOUR SUPPORT.

If any of you live in the Pearl City Area you probably know him. He was a fixture in the area since 1970. He passed away fighting Heart troubles at 77.
What most people don't know is he trained most of the Chinese chefs on the island and also a lot of other famous chefs in Chinese style cooking.

He was just about to take 4 of his best friends to Las Vegas for a week.

He leaves behind 3 sons, 2 daughters & 4 Grandchildren.

We will miss him dearly.

My condolences to you and your family too.

I've always believed that when a good person passes away... Heaven becomes a much better Place.

Speedtek... Heaven just got that much better.

Speedtek, we're keeping you and your family in our thoughts.

If you're inclined, and if it might help, I'd love to hear more about your father someday, and his history in Honolulu and in the local restaurant biz. He sounds like someone who'd have a million stories to tell -- like someone I'd have loved to meet.

[speedtek]

THANKS AGAIN FOR YOUR SUPPORT! ALOHA.

If anyone ate there before let me know your experience. being there so long he was having 3 generations of families come in to eat at the restaurant!

Speedtek, I'm so sorry for your loss.

I lost my own dad to cancer more than 10 years ago ... and I still miss him and wish his grandchildren had gotten more time to really know him and learn cool stuff from him.

You can take heart in the knowledge that the hurt may largely give way, over time, to warm and fond memories you can easily share with a smile.

At least, that has been my experience, despite missing my daddy.

[tutusue]

Thanks, Erika, for giving 'voice' to my exact feelings. So many times yesterday I logged on to offer the same sentiments, then couldn't, as it was the 3rd anniversary of my dad's passing. I, too, miss my daddy...big time. Just as Erika says, Speedtek, time will heal the pain and the memories will take on a wonderful life of their own.

[AbsolutChaos]

I'm sorry to hear of your loss too.

Speedtek,

My heartfelt condolences. My thoughts and prayers go out to you and your family.

I too lost my dad less than two years ago. I just believe that they are now in a better place where they no longer suffer.

Speedtek,

Deepest sympathies to your ohana.

Like Pzarquon suggested, when the time is appropriate, it would be great if you could share some of your dad's restaurant stories.

Sincerely,
Pomai
