This is Hard……….You were my Idol,teammate,fishing partner and close friend. I’m glad you are free of pain and in a better place now!!you meant so much to our gang on Maui as well as the paddling community around the world. We shared many laughs,tears and travels along the way. You always didn’t tell people what they wanted to hear but what they needed to hear!! And that’s hard to do!! No body ever competed at a higher level in paddling whether it was afternoon practice with Nov b’s or in the end of the most important race. I learned so much from you and will think about you every day!!i know you will always be around in spirit!!I’ll always be ther for your family!! Love you brother Kai!!
