YOU TŪTŪ

———

On February 13, 1916, Marietta Haona Luke was born.

———

On August 19, 2024, Tūtū passed away as Marietta Haona Luke Kama.

———

To all of you, I want to personally extend my most sincere gratitude and warmest aloha for your love for Tūtū.

———

Up until my final conversation with her, I had kept reminding Tūtū that she was more famous than me

but for real!

———

I would talk to her about the comments you all have shared over the years….and every single time, it tickled her.

———

She has told me to tell you, “Mahalo! I love you all!”

———

I have so much to share about Tūtū and I would like to share some stories of my time with her in future posts.

———

The one thing I would like to say about her for this post:

I WOULD NOT be where I am in my life today if it wasn’t for Tūtū, personally and professionally. She has always been a part of my life. She is part of my brand. Even though Tūtū is no longer with us, I will continue to speak of her because to me, she will partially live through me. Love you all!

———

Tūtū lays at rest along side her mother, my great-great grandmother (aka Tūtūtū

). May they REST IN PEACE!

Mahalo Ke Akua

Was and is still one of my favorite parts of you! She helped raise and amazing human and for that I know she was proud! Her smile with you was different! She’s a memory in all of our lives because of your love and that’s amazing!
