Jane Kalehua Staadt

2024 in Arlington, Texas. She was born on August 31, 1944 in Hilo, Hawaii to Hannah Grace and Edward

Kawaauhau. She loved her work in food service at public schools in Colorado and Hawaii and took great

pride in being a part of the kapuna program where she taught children about her beloved Hawaii and its

beautiful culture. She loved celebrating birthdays, dancing, talking story and sharing time with family

and friends. She lived her life to the fullest and knew no stranger. Although we mourn her loss, her

unwavering faith in God gives us comfort that we will see each other again. Preceded in death by

husband, Leslie Staadt, Sr. and siblings Hannah, Vickie, Antone and Edward. Kapuna Jane is survived by

brothers, Achie, Donald, Leroy and Lester; sisters Dona, Ellen and Debra; her children, Leslie Jr., Kay and

Kimo, and her eight mo’opunas. She will be greatly missed by all, including her many nieces, nephews,

cousins and friends.
