I would like to share this beautiful, from the heart, Christmas message below that was sent to me today by my wonderful friend Makua Leilani in the true spirit of giving, sharing, and caring for others with Aloha.
Wishing you and your family and friends a safe and blessed Christmas Day together as we celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ…

Merry Blessed Christmas Barry..
Just wanted to share..
Even with uncertainty around the world…I truly believe sharing ALOHA with others will conquer it all…
With all the challenges we had this year, with my boys being bullied and my fear of not surviving surgery…God have given us the strength and focus to do what we do best…continue to help those in need..
We were able to round -up and bless 50 plus preschool to high school students with backpacks and school supplies right after my surgery and just before the children started their 2025-2026 school year as well round up.50 toys for Kapiolani’s Santa Workshop…
Here are Pomai and Makana at the Santa’s Workshop trying to do it on their own and my ‘ohana and I a few weeks right after my surgery at our backpack distribution earlier this year at Ma’ili Land. I hope and pray that if something happens, the boys along with my ‘ohana will continue to help share ALOHA with those in need in the community.
Take care,
Makua Leilani
