Born in the Philippines on December 16, 1919, she immigrated as a child to Kohala Plantation on the Big Island where she married and raised her family.

After 30 years at the age of 88 she retired from the tailoring, alterations and manufacturing business. She was loved, adored and respected by her Ohana and friends. During her final days she was surrounded by family members with some making a "special trek" to show their love and respect. Spending time with her children and their spouses, 8 grandsons and their wives, and 16 great-grandchildren was paramount in her life and is her legacy to her entire Ohana.
