He spent most of his time down at the beach, with his fishing pole in the
water just waiting to hear the fishing bell ring! He was a true Tampa Bay
Buccaneers fan! If you know Akeakamai then you know he loved his
football! His loud laugh was contagious. Just hearing his laugh made
everyone crack up. Akeakamai had the most gorgeous smile ever!
On October 15, 2024 Akua called our beloved Akeakamai home. He fought
a long battle against diabetes. No more pokes and prods. He is now a
guardian angel who watches over all of us.
Akeakamai is now flying free with all our loved ones. And will always
surround us with his love and protection.
Celebration of life will be held on Saturday, November 23, 2024
at Waihe‘e Beach Park from 12pm-4pm
