Regrettably, George Nakashima passed away last Wednesday evening.

We were very much looking forward to meeting him and seeing his work and hearing his stories of the days when he was building the Polynesian palaces we all love. The Mai Kai was looking forward to having him back in the place he helped put together. He seemed in good health and spirits when I last spoke to him.

I'll post more news when I have it.
