In a strange coincidence, I had an urge to take along "Don Ho 30 Hawaiian Favorites" CD to work with me today and was playing it in the shop at the time of his passing, unknown to me until this evening when I turned on the Merrie Monarch Hula Festival in Hilo and they paid tribute to him.
He hadn't been well the past few years, but performed right up until Thursday night in Waikiki. An icon, for sure!
