Hi Gerald,
I read about your passing in the Punahou Bulletin.
We were great buddies in high school and lost touch after graduation.
I fondly remember our body surfing at Makapuu and the times you joined me in board surfing. We were water "rats" and enjoyed every minute of being in the water and catching the waves.
You also used the Shaka every once in awhile.
I´ll miss you, but I expect that we will meet again.
