Big Mahalo to Victoria Keith for posting this treasure on Youtube.
Kahu Kawika Kaʻalakea:
A very special and influential man in Kumu Kealoha’s life. “Kumu’s kumu”.
“Papa” Kaʻalakea was a very respected, admired and loved Kahu Pule as well as Kahuna Lāʻau Lapaʻau.
He is deeply missed by all who knew him.
