Kalipo Kealiihoohuli Furuto

She was a retired office clerk/shuttle driver at Ala Moana Volkswagen Porsche Audi, where she dedicated many years performing administrative tasks and shuttling passengers to and from the dealership. Her infectious smile and warm demeanor made it easy for her to connect with all who had the opportunity to grace her presence.

A loving wife, devoted mother, cherished grandmother, treasured great-grandmother, and proud great-great grandmother. She lived a long and meaningful life marked by her kind gestures, sense of understanding and unwavering love for her family. She believed in the power of gentleness and lived a life that honored respect, patience, and quiet strength. To her family, she was our heart-always present, always supportive, always loving. She raised generations with wisdom and warmth, teaching by example how to live with integrity and generosity. Her humble spirit and unwavering respect for others were just some of the qualities that made her so deeply cherished.

Her presence was a blessing, and her legacy will live on in us all. Although we miss her dearly, we celebrate the beautiful memories she leaves behind- the laughters shared, the lessons learned, and her love that never wavered.

She is survived by daughters Vernette Kahanaoi (Joe), Maydell Werner (Kalei), TerryLynn Simeona (Troy), Lorie Ann Kamai (Louis), and Tanya Furuto (Aaron), sister Ruth Vaughan, 10 grandchildren, 19 great grandchildren, and 9 great-great grandchildren.
