Mamoru Rock Ar-Sikh Hewitt

Mamoru Rock Ar-Sikh Hewitt (21) left us from his Manson, Washington home during the early morning hours of Sunday, September 15, 2013. Mamoru who began his earthly journey March 7, 1992 in Honolulu, Hawaii, attended high school in Wilbur, Washington where he was a member of the Wilbur Wildcats Football and Basketball teams, before attending Salish Kootenai College in Nespelem, Washington. His work at the Manson, Washington Mountainview Lodge was more than a job to Mamoru, his fellow workers became like a second family to him. Mamoru enjoyed basketball, watching UFC at every opportunity, playing “Texas Holdem” and working-out at the gym. A man who greatly valued his time with friends, Mamoru especially cherished time spent with his “Shining Star” niece – Josephine and loved trying to beat his Mom at fishing (which didn’t happen very often!).
