He survived a life of hardship to become an educated, well-respected, and successful man. He retired from the U.S. Federal Government after 42 Civilian Years of Service. At age 11, he professed his faith and love in Jesus Christ, witnessed miracles and testimonies, and found his purpose in life fellowshipping at the Gospel of Salvation Church.

He leaves a legacy of love (of Jesus Christ), of family, and of people. He was a devoted husband, married to his one and only love, Winona Keonaona Kalahiki for 70 years.
