Same Tajiri from Kaimuki area back in the 80s?
Yup, one of Kapahulu’s finest and the whole family is just salt of earth. My condolences go out to the Tajiri family during this time of sorrow. RIL Brother
OSHA investigation. Going up on a roof without harness is not a good idea.
Condolences to the family and friends.
Isn’t this headlines old? Thought it was reported 3 days ago?
The S-A has to do it for the slow readers…
There are no boundaries for condolences to the families of the deceased! RIP!
