My Dearest UFOhana,
I have some very sad news .
Carolyn Pendry, a beloved friend, a wonderful human being and forever member of the UFOhana passed away at 5:17 pm today..
She could longer sustain her long fight with cancer . . .
About a year and half ago, Doctors had said, after successfully completing her first bought with cancer and the arduous treatment, that she would probably not walk again.
But true to her unrelenting spirit, with months of rehab, and with Ken forever by her side, she not only fully regained use of her legs, was able to travel to the South Pacific, accompany Ken on his cross country / pacific gigs and was actually able to Hula once again.
This time, battling a new cancer, she had succumbed to the disease’s onslaught.
A dear friend and fighter to the end . . .
Remembering Carolyn
Let us all send our Healing Alohas to Ken and Carolyn’s family during this difficult time.
Let’s all give our Mahalo to Akua (your higher power) for allowing our time with her.
Uke-ku
relentless spirit,
final call from Akua,
leaving Aloha.
hoomaha maikai ko kakou hoa (rest well our friend).
Aloha oe Carolyn!
Forever yours,
Del, Linda, Jake and your UFOhana
Dearest UFO family. I’m so deeply sorry for this great loss. What a wonderful Spirit Carolyn was. She will be forever missed.
Sending condolences to all who have been touched by her joy!
Love Nicole and Mike
Beautiful tribute and photos, may she rest in peace, and all condolences to her loved ones, we can be sure she is in eternal joy shining down upon them always til they rejoin in heaven
Sad news indeed. What a lovely lady. Always a treat to watch her and Lois’s graceful hulus with their beaming smiles. What a “ trooper” to go from needing a walker to going back to dancing unassisted. Words fail me. Condolences to Ken, Lois, Del, Linda, and the whole UFOhana. Sad news indeed. Fare thee well Carolyn. Much Love, Don and Marty
Thanks for letting me know us know about Carolyn’s passing. We will miss her

This news hits me hard – my thoughts are with Ken now. May he find solace in his music and in the knowledge that his Ohana shares his loss deeply as well.
So sorry to hear. Rest In Peace Lovely Carolyn!
