Aloha,

For those of you who may not have heard, or missed my previous post, one of our dearest ‘Ohana members Carolyn Pendry passed away this past Sunday.

I’ve created a permanent page for her on our blog. It can be found here.

On that page is a link to a photo album of Carolyn’s life with our ‘Ohana and her life partner, Ken Emerson. It’s open to anyone who wants to share their memories of her.

Please upload any photos or videos you may want to share to that album. Ken has already done so and I would encourage you all to view the wonderful life she’s shared with him and her UFOhana.

Ken, understandably, is a very difficult place right now. He’s very grateful to the outpouring of Aloha. But he needs time to himself at the moment. Time to reconcile the cold logistics of her passing and the emotional tsunami of losing the love of his life.

Let us all keep him and Carolyn’s family in our prayers, continue to send healing Mana their way.

Remember . . . always . . .

Mahalo to you all for your Kokua.

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
