I was just taking a look at this morning’s paper and a saw a front page blurb about the passing of Don Ho.

You can read more in Entertainer Don Ho, Hawaii’s best ambassador, dies at 76 from the Honolulu Star-Bulletin.

Take a look at the article’s listing of all the television shows he performed on. I recollect seeing just about all of them. I also saw him during a trip to Hawaii with my family back in 1978.

Don Ho was the consummate entertainer. For all the alleged kitchiness of his shows, he was the genuine article.

Aloha, Don Ho. Eternal rest grant onto him O Lord.
