A bronze statue of musician Don Ho will be unveiled Aug. 13 in its future home at the International Market Place. Ho, above right, gets a kiss from a fan after a show at the Waikiki Beachcomber Hotel in Honolulu. He met with every fan for pictures and autographs, a tradition he started during the height of his popularity in the 1960s and ’70s.
