"A true Hawaiian like my uncle Archie welcomed competition in work and in play and in life itself. Throughout his life, his love for the family that he cared for never waivered.
"For my uncle, your husband, your father, your grandfather, your friend, I am proud and humbled to have known this man. A man of such contrasts. . .like many of us. . .
"When we are young, we believe the world and all in it must come to our terms. I saw such a contrast, for the Archie Kalepa I knew smiled an unforgettable smile, was soft-spoken, and unassuming, and was an observer.
"And Archie Kalepa, had I known you fifty years ago, I dare say I might have used other adjectives to describe you in addition to soft-spoken or observer.
"You participated. . .completely in the life God gave you, you were an outstanding employee with the Board of Water Supply as well as J.M. Tanaka. . .since I was a young child, I could recall that truck in the driveway at your home on St. Louis Heights.
"Your yard work, the nursery, working with the soil, the neatness of your home, your commitment to always doing a classy, first-rate job.
"Yes, this Hawaiian man, along with brothers Richard, Philip and Dallas and David, sisters Lorinda, Poni and Susan, exemplify the kind of Hawaiian I will strive to be. . .They teach us now if we will only accept the challenge and live by their example.
"We all say Aloha me ke kaumaha loa i ka ohana o keia kanaka o Lahaina, Maui, kahi o kou hanau ia. Aue ua hala ia a ka koe no na pua.
"He has passed and before us what remains are the flowers in his garden of life; his wife Louise, daughter Marsha, and these fine moopuna. Aloha a hui hou e Anakala."
This eulogy was written and delivered by grand nephew Terry Kanalu Young.
