Wow!Great responces! Mahalo! And I learned some new stuff about Skipper Kent. for example, the heiau that blocked the building of their dream project. Skipper and Lucile built a house in Holualoa. The house is still there and the current owners are taking care of it really well. There is an Orchid house that the skipper built and the grounds are filled with exotic trees from various trips across the pacific. I never knew the Kents but have been collecting their memories in photos and picing their lives together that way. @ Traderbill: What's your father's name. I have so many pictures but no name to put to the face. Could you post a picture of your pops, and don't forget his name? If you love memories and biographies, Lucille was the original note taker, letter writer, we had a box, filled with recipts from Lunch on Saturday (then the date) from many years. (this is just a memory) I had another box filled with albums of Christmas Cards. Lucille was quite the accomplished artist. Skipper built her a little bungalow attached to the car port, and that was her studio! She had many galleryopenings in Kona during the 60's in Kona.
