Well after this last post I talked to Peter Mah again several times about making contact with Harry's surviving family but it never came about.

I had made a framed 8.5x11 inch poster to give to the Mah brothers and another for the Wong family in anticipation of our meeting and interview. I used the ad images Sabu posted. I held on to them for over a year and then Trad'r Bill called me up the other day and asked if I wanted to meet at Minnie's since he was in the area. We met at Minnnie's had a great lunch and talked to the Mah brothers. I gave them the posters and told them the pictures were discovered by one of the top urban Tiki archaeologists in the country. They were both very happy and appreciative of the poster and the work Sabu did. Stuart said he remembered a rickshaw out side the place and that they would give one of the posters to the Wong family. Hopefully this will lead to them contacting me or posting some of their memories here.

The Mah brothers gave us each two complimentary tropical drinks called the "Jerk" They taste great and were invented by Stewart I believe.

Here is the poster I made for them.
