Lee and Luci and their children were such an important part of my early years on Oahu from 1982. Their Love and Aloha and examples of public service have made a difference in my life for sure. Facing adversity and grief only made their bond stronger. Now with my Love and Aloha and we all honor Lee´s life and hold Luci and kids and their kids close in our hearts

It is with our deepest sympathy that we extend our Aloha to Mrs. Donahue & her Ohana on behalf of our father The late Gillie C Silva Sr. Who worked with Mr. Donahue when they both were at Pearl City Station, behind the old Pearl City Tavern,( back in the good old days.) our dad had great stories of them back then and great respect for him. Now they can reminisce together once again. A Hui Hou ~ The Silva Ohana

Aloha Donohue Ohana!
Chief, Coach , Sensei!
Lee was my high school football coach. He treated all of us like his kids. The entire coaching staff was pretty much Police Officers. They were the best mentors and coaches. He will be missed !!

I had the pleasure of working for then LT Donohue in the late 70's in the Narcotics Section of HPD. He was a great boss and mentor and treated us all like family. My condolences to the family and may he rest in peace.
