The 2nd Annual Relay for Life took place on Saturday, August 15th at the Kapalama Campus. Our class had two teams and raised over $5,000 at the charity event that benefits the American Cancer Society. Standing with our gold team award is Diane Corcoran, Lew Biven, Karynne Chong Morgan, Leonard Batungbacal, Mona Hall Neill, Benson Medina, Sue Peterson, Debbie Lau Okamura and Duane Chun.
Stacey Atchinson Panui and Lew Biven take a few minutes to catch up at the Relay for Life. Our class was well represented and raised over $5,000 in donations.
Aunty Gussie Bento and son, Keolu Bento '76, hold the luminaria bag that honors Padeken Bento, our classmate, who passed away from cancer back in 2001.
Pete Gonsalves and Kevin Lima prepare the luminaria bags. Dozens of bags were prepared for the many classmates, family members and friends that have been touched by cancer.
Edwina Kalahiki, Liane Sing, Mona Hall Neill, Jonia Leong Kamada and Debbie Lau Okamura take a break from walking to get the luminaria ceremony ready. Liane recently survived cancer surgery.
