I always love listening to local artists when we visit Hawaii. I didn't discover the music of Israel Kamakawiwo (IZ) until after he died in 1997. This is one of my favorite songs of all times, and the video is a tribute to a life and beautiful voice that ended way too early. Recently on a message board, we had a discussion about our wishes for memorial planning (most people's plans involved distributing ashes in tropical locations!). My plans involved Playa Norte, a remote-control toy boat, a fireworks display, and the ashes. :) Take a look at the celebration of Iz's life towards the end of this video. What a fantastic way to go out!
