Wish we could’ve met her, but I can imagine what an amazing person she was to raise such an awesome son. Brandon is so generous, so thoughtful, I can just imagine how much she inspired him and others she met.

Rest in Love,

Sending lots of love and aloha - Fernandes ‘Ohana

Love you, Aunty Della. What an amazing life you lived. I am blessed to have known you and have been touched by your life, as many others have. I will miss your warm hugs and genuine smile.

When I was young, dad would tell me how you would get him free stand by flights to see me since my parents were divorced and he lived on the big island. Given your heart it was probably nothing to you at the time, but as I have grown up and had my own child, those small acts just seem that much more special to me.

Thank you for being who you are, and leaving this world better than you found it. Your legacy will live on forever. Until we meet again.

She loved watching k-drama and soap operas. She use to love crocheting and making lei. Her favorite moments are being absolutely silly with her grandkids and learning all the hip new dance moves.
