We often ate at restaurants and did our shopping at Fred Meyers and other places in the area. My daughters went to a hula school in Burien, about 12 years ago. It makes perfect sense because he did most of his work 50 years ago, right around the time I was born. He moved to Seattle days after, the news paper clipping of him carving a tiki was taken, dated on March 4, 1964 24 days be for I was born (March 28, 1964). My dads band played at a Hawaiian night club called Golden Doors, which had two of his tiki's on the side of the doors, my memory is vague, they could of been on the front of the doors. Aloha and Maholo Andrea
