You kids are in our thoughts and prayers.

Papa,
I only knew you for a short time. That was all I needed to see beyond the hard book cover to the kind, caring, loving and prideful man you are.
Every time I’d stop in for a visit I’d bring chicken sandwiches and Baskin & Robbins ice cream. I know the ice-cream wasn’t too healthy, but you always enjoyed it plus it gave me a excuse to stop by. I’ll always remember the little things, the stories we told and times we shared.
So in honor of you Papa, today I am going to have a chicken sandwich and ice-cream for lunch. It’s funny how those little thought last…
We both worked with Clarence
at Ind. Plating co. He was a
good man, our sincerest and
deepest sympathies to his
loved ones.
Daddy-
Peace be within thy walls, and prosperity within thy palaces.
For my brethren and companions sakes’ I will now say, Peace be within thee.
Psalms:122 7-8
I LOVE YOU DADDY! with all of my heart & soul! Until the end of time!
Your Son, Brian Kamaka Moa
Our Dearest Moa Ohana,
Hawaii loves each and every one of you. No long distance roaming charges or internet log ons is needed to send this message, love requires no fees….just an open heart to receive. Your beloved father, papa, uncle and dearest friend is no longer physically with us, but rest assured that his love will always be felt, even when you least expect it. As the sun sets at the end of the day preparing us for a new dawn, so is his passing preparing us for a new start…he has passed the torch on to the next runner, so let each and every one of us take that torch and run with it as he has done. He has fought a good fight and his journey is over, now it’s our turn to carry on and share the love that he has taught us. We will not be able to attend the services in Seattle, but we look forward to seeing all of you in Kona. Love & Aloha,
Cheryl & Cassidy “Ikaika” Moa
To ALL MY NIECES and NEPHEWS. May God ease the pain that is in your hearts. Dad has gone to a better place where there is no problems, no sorrows, and no pain. Physically he will be missed but his spirit lives on in each and everyone of us. Keep strong and let the Lord be your constant companion always. I LOVE ALL OF YOU and pray that God will bless, guide, protect, and keep all of you always. LOVE, AUNTIE KATIE MOA
DA MOA OHANA Words cannot express the deep sorrow and emptiness that will be felt among the many hearts and lives that your Dad has touched, but we all know he is in a better place. Where pain and suffering can no longer reach him, and he can CROW with the rest of the ROOSTERSGRANDPA, MY DAD, AND UNCLE JOHN up in Heaven. May God give all of you the peace that only he can fill. ME KEALOHA PUMEHANAwith warmest regards LOVE AND ALOHA from Nanakuli Cousin ANA.

Daddy, through you my brothers and sisters found me hurt and shattered but because of your love and persistance we are finding out that you gave us more love than we ever knew. In honoring your memory we vow to never seperate never misunderstand nor never forsake each other. LOVE will bind us as never before we have a rough road without you but we know now what we lost and we are finding out the answers to questions we never knew the answers to. our wall of shame has been removed and in your name we shall never forget to love eachother unconditionally. Your grandsons love and miss you so much but like you they have it hard to express the suffering they feel but their silence speaks loud of the pain they feel.You are their “PAPA” always and forever. WE LOVE YOU DADDY AND YOU WILL ALWAYS BE IN OUR HEARTS, AND DADDY I’M SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO SORRY DADDY AND I LOVE YOU YOUR DAUGHTER DEBRA
Daddy,
We see you. Cruisin in your corvette, top down. We hear you. Laughing at us lolo kids. And we feel you. Grabbing our hands and helping us through life while we miss you so.
Oh Daddy, I miss you and will every single day for the rest of my life. I am so glad that I got to spend time with y ou on that last day and that I had a chance to get to know you as an adult.You were always bigger than life in my eyes and I always looked to you for wisdom. Sometimes we didn’t have alot to say to each other…neither of us being big conversationists…but when you spoke, I listened and you did the same for me. Like I told you on that last day together. YOU are my Dad and nobody else and you always will be. I love you Daddy. You are free now to do whatever you want physically that you couldn’t do with your disability Go, run, drive, work in God’s yard, fix his cars!!
Always, #1
Hi Daddy, I keep coming to this site as I feel it is the only way to reach you…silly, I know….Everywhere I look in the house, I see you….Even in Kona, your chair, your bedroom…and there is a deep emptiness inside of me…will we ever get over this sadness? I promise to you again that I will make a home for OUR family and be sure ALL your children feel free to return to their homeland where you want them to go…Kona is not the same anymore knowing you will not return there….I hope that my brothers and sisters will know that it is their place too and that your hand will guide us in achieving your wishes there….I will love you forever and ever and miss you just as much…Your youngest daughter, Judy Mapuana Moa

OUR DEEPEST SYMPATHIES FOR THE FAMILY!
WE LOVE YOU!
Daddy, I just want to thank you for marrying Mama so that I would have a Daddy to grow up and proud of! Though you were very tough on me when I was a kid, I now realize it was because you wanted to keep me safe from the influences of the world and you had high hopes for me. Thank you Daddy, for your guidance all my life and thank you for the love you were finally able to express when I was all grown up. I will cherish your love and support forever. I know that you are at the feet of Jesus now and I continue to pray for you every single day. I love you very much.
Always,
Your #1
Love always, see ya when I see ya!
We miss you and love you. May your spirit be free to go fishing and fixing cars with your brothers wherever you may be. I thank you for all your support and your love for me and for my family. You are missed and loved.
aloha
