Memorial Services for Clarence "Gadget" Takashima
There will be a Memorial Service for beloved member Clarence "Gadget" Takashima on Saturday, June 13, 2015, at All Saints' Episcopal Church. Visitation will begin at 3:00 PM and the service will follow at 4:00 PM.
Gadget was born on May 30, 1920, in Kapa'a, and was the Kaua'i Union Director with the Hawaii Government Employees Assocation (HGEA). He passed away peacefully at Samuel Mahelona Hospital on May 23, at the age of 94. He was preceded in death by his wife Ruth, and is survived by his son Dana (Becky) Takashima of Moloka'i, daughter Dee (Larry) Grigsby of Kapa'a, and numerous grandchildren, great grandchildren, nieces, nephews and cousins.
His ties with All Saints' goes way back. It was here that he married his wife Ruth in 1947. Daughter Dee fondly remembers how he was always involved with the church, serving as Junior Warden for many years, and with the Monday Morning Clean Up Crew. "Dad was always the 'go to' guy," said Dee, "people knew they could count on him." She goes on to say, "When people asked, he always said yes."
He loved golfing and his family, and when people speak of him, you hear the same words -- "Gadget did so much for me"-- "He was such a generous man."

This Weekend's Saturday Market: It's a Dad's Life!
This weekend is the monthly Saturday Market and Swap Meet, and we're celebrating sports and our dads! Along with the regular line up of talented vendors, we've invited vendors to bring out their best sporting items that dad would love, whether it's fishing, football, golf, basketball, or hunting! (Rumor has it there may even be a boat for sale!) The Kalaheo Futsal Club will also be doing a car wash and bake sale, and vendor Wayne will be cooking up a batch of his ono Portuguese Bean Soup! The Market runs from 9:00 AM - 2:00 PM. Spread the word and come on down! You'll be sure to find something special for the super men in your life! For more information, visit the webpage HERE. |

Congratulations to Our Graduates!
All Saints' recognizes and congratulates its college graduates, Martin Antonio, son of Mario and Mabel Antonio, and Christen Wilson, daughter of Colin and Nancy Wilson, and granddaughter of Mary Wilson.
Martin (pictured with mom Mabel) graduated from the University of Hawai'i with a Bachelor of Social Science degree, majoring in Political Science. He plans to continue a post-Bachelor program for Education Certification and acceptance into a Masters program for Education. Martin shared his enthusiasm for a class program he was introduced to called Philosophy for Children Hawaii (P4C), and feels it is a very compelling way to teach. "P4C is an experience that allows students to have more control and input in the education process in the classroom," said Martin, who hopes to return one day to teach at his alma mater, Kapa'a High School.
 Christen Wilson graduated from Chapman University in Southern California, College of Educational Studies, with a degree in Integrated Educational Studies (IES). Christen graduated summa cum laude, the highest of honors, and is a member of Kappa Delta Pi, the International Honor Society in Education. She is currently undergoing a 6-week training program in Arizona, where she was accepted into the Teach for America organization. After her training, Christen will move to O'ahu where she will begin earning her credentials teaching a third grade Special Education class at Maili Elementary School.
We also congratulate Noah who is pictured here at the Kapa'a High School graduation last month and was featured in an earlier e-news. Noah heads to George Fox University in Oregon in August to begin his college studies.
Congratulations to all our young adults who are on track to make a difference in the lives of our youth and community!

New Ministry to Kick-off on June 17
All Saints' will be doing a "soft launch" of its newest outreach ministry, Laundry Love Kauai, on Wednesday, June 17, at the Kapa'a Laundromat. All Saints' has partnered up with the nationwide nonprofit organization, Laundry Love, to provide laundry services to our community. Volunteers will be ready and waiting with quarters, detergent, dryer sheets and a big smile, as we help folks do their laundry. Although the ministry is intended to help those who are struggling and need a helping hand, all are welcome!
Twelve years ago, the idea for Laundry Love was sparked from a conversation with a homeless man in Ventura County, CA. "If I had clean clothes I think people would treat me like a human being." From this simple statement, Laundry Love was born and has now spread across the nation, offering laundry services to the poor and homeless.
Kapa'a Laundromat is located in the Kapa'a Shopping Center behind the Shell Service Station and next to Ace Hardware. This service will be offered twice a month, on the first and third Wednesdays of the month during evening hours. Volunteers will offer to wash, dry and fold laundry to all who come, and spend some time to get to know our neighbors better.
You can help spread the word by sharing the flyer that can be downloaded HERE.
VOLUNTEERS WELCOME: If you would like to volunteer in this ministry, visit the webpage HERE.
