| We are very sorry to announce the passing of Joseph K. "Uncle Joe" Keaulana, Jr. Uncle Joe was the bass player and singer for Lei Hulu, Kimo Alama Keaulana's traditional Hawaiian music group. Hawai'i has lost a musical treasure and generous, loving man. We will miss Uncle Joe's laugh, his hugs and kisses, his extraordinary bass-playing and beautiful voice. Our thoughts and prayers are with all who were blessed to love and be loved by this great man. Visitation and Funeral Services for Joseph K. Keaulana, Jr. will be held at Kawaiaha'o Church Wednesday, April 6, 2005 5:00 pm - 9:00 pm (services at 7:00 pm) At Uncle Joe's request, please dress in black or white. Burial will be the following day at O'ahu Cemetery at 11:00 am. Directions: Please park at the main cemetery lot on the 'Ewa side of Nu'uanu Avenue. Cross Nu'uanu to reach the burial site, on the Diamond Head side of Nu'uanu Avenue. There is a beautiful tribute to Uncle Joe in this morning's Honolulu Advertiser. Mahalo for your love, prayers and support for Kimo and the family. |
