Wow, how cool. Apparently Taneo went on to practice Huna, the ancient Hawaiian mysticism. Her name (with the adage "Sands", maybe her maiden name, or she remarried) is on a bunch of New Age websites offering exercises practiced by her:

(The only Ahi ritual I am familiar with involves Sushi). She must have founded a school of huna, because she is mentioned by name as a source among other practices:

Here a little info about Huna:

It makes perfect sense that in the 70s, when the children of the Polynesian pop generation turned their back on cocktail culture and became incense burning, dope smoking, "Aquarius" singing hippies, active members of the Poly pop set evolved into New Age believers, also. She sounds like she had a great life. :)
