As the years march on, we must continue to be informed and prepared for the future as we all age. H As Generations Magazine enters its 7th year, we begin by addressing the bigger issues, such as the need for long-term care. Throughout this the following EDITOR’S NOTE EDITOR’S year, Generations Magazine will address some of the many major life events and decisions we will all eventually have to face — staying healthy as we live into our 90s, how to effectively age in place and end-of-life options and decisions. In this issue’s cover story, you will meet Jeff Apaka and hear his inspirational message — his compassion for serving seniors, his love for Waiki¯ki¯, and his com- munity service with the Waiki¯ki¯ Community Center and the Duke Kahanamoku Beach Challenge. A special thank you goes out to retiring Sen. Suzanne Chun Oakland, who has been a great friend to all of our ku¯puna, baby boomers and children in our com- munities for years. She has supported with passion and compassion our Ku¯puna Care bills and Ku¯puna Caucus advocate group. She has also been one of the big- gest supporters of children’s causes in the state. We also welcome our University of Hawai‘i student intern, Shayna Fujimoto. She’s presently persuing a degree in English and looking forward to getting in- volved in the publishing industry. From her own caregiv- ing experience, she’s written an article on Parkinson’s disease called “A Labor of Love” (page 48). I would also like to recognize KITV’s “Aging Well” pro- gram on Channel 4. Generations Magazine has partnered with KITV, bringing top advisors in the senior industry. If you miss the morning shows on Saturdays from 6 to 8 am, go online to www.kitv.com and look for archives of past segments.
