ANE, NEAL BLAISDELL, a long-time Hawai’i football coach and teacher, grandson of former Honolulu Mayor Neal S. Blaisdell, and youngest son of the late, legendary coach Charles “Charlie” Teetai Ane Jr., passed away on Oct. 2, 2012. He was 56. Ane was born on Oct. 19, 1955, in Detroit, where his father played center for the World Champion Detroit Lions. Charlie and his wife Marilyn Blaisdell Ane shared a passion for athletics and an enduring love of Hawai’i. After the Anes returned to the islands in 1959, they enrolled Neal and his older siblings, Kale and Malia, at Punahou School. Neal was an outstanding athlete who played football, basketball and baseball for the Buff ‘n Blue. He was named ILH football defensive player of the year in 1973 and won the 1974 ILH baseball batting championship award, mirroring one his father’s early achievements. Neal graduated from Punahou School in 1974 and went on to play football at Brigham Young University-Utah. Neal most recently worked as a PE teacher and counselor at Ka Waihona o Ka Na’auao public charter school in Nanakuli. Over a 20-year career as a football coach, he worked at a number of schools, including Damien Memorial School, Kalani High School, Kula Kaiapuni O Anuenue, St. Anthony Junior-Senior High School on Maui, Radford High School and Punahou. “His unbelievable sense for football is what made him the great player and coach that he was,” said son Hoapili. “He taught his players life skills, and they all became part of his extended family.” Neal lived life with gusto, his natural ebullience lifting the spirits of those around him. An avid outdoorsman, he could often be found camping at the family home in Hau’ula or enjoying the ocean. He was a deeply loyal and compassionate friend and a devoted family man who loved spending time with his children and grandchildren. “Neal taught me to be a better kumu by teaching me patience, humility, positive spirit and perseverance,” said Malia, director of K-12 Hawaiian Studies at Punahou School. “We miss him and we love him dearly.” Added Hoapili, “He showed us how to live and love life, and how to be a great dad, grandfather, brother and friend to all.” Neal is survived by children Neal Hoapili (Chana), Marcus Keola (Noelani), James Kaha’iali’iokaiwiulaokamehameha and Samantha Kaulananapua; grandchildren Marcus Keola, Jr, Eva Mahealani Dudoit, Braylen Pu’uwaihaokila Simon and Neal Ulumaheihei Blaisdell; brother Kale and sister Malia.

Apo, Cheryl Ann Marie, 66, passed away May 6, surrounded by loving family and friends. Born September 13, 1945 in Chicago to Charles & Lorraine Kadlec. She moved to Hawaii in 1967, fell in love with the islands, its cultural diversity, and decided to make it her home. She embraced local values, customs, and people. She was regarded as the blue-eyed blond with the big, warm Hawaiian heart. She had a deep love of her family and looked forward to luau celebrations, holiday gatherings, and the preparation of laulau for New Year’s. Cheryl was renown in Hawaii’s hotel industry. She was the Director of Personnel, then Resident Manager of Hilton Hawaiian Village. In 1980 she moved to Hale Koa and was the Director of Food & Beverage and Assistant General Manager. There she was tireless, determined, selfless, passionate, and dedicated to the hotel’s employees and guests. Employees will remember her as fair and compassionate. She took the time to meet and welcome every new hire. She always had time to “talk story”. She delighted in hearing about their families, graduations and marriages of their children. She believed employees should be treated with dignity and respect. She spent great portions of her time mentoring those from disadvantaged backgrounds, she was a champion of the underdog. Guests will remember her as gracious and generous. She was an advocate of the service member, insuring their visits exceeded expectations. She will be remembered for her wonderful lobby displays at Christmas. People came from all over the island to take photos in the Victorian Parlor display she would lovingly craft. In 2008, the US Army reassigned her to Ft. Shafter but her heart remained at Hale Koa. Under her direction the hotel achieved a standard that has not been matched since. She is survived by her husband, John Lee, Jr., son, Sean Ah Yen, mother, Lorraine, father & mother-in-law, John, Sr. & Maile Lee, sister-in-law, Jamie Yamashita, brothers-in-law, Jeff & Jay Lee, nieces and nephews. “Ha ‘awi, ha ‘awi, ha ‘awi pau loa” “Give, give, give till it’s all gone” Hawaiian Proverb.

Ashton, Dr. Geoffrey C., died suddenly in Honolulu on June 18, 2012. He was born in Croydon, England on July 5, 1925, but spent most of his childhood in Liverpool where he attended the Liverpool Collegiate School and the University of Liverpool. He earned a B.Sc. in Zoology and then went to work for Lever Brothers in Liverpool and a hospital in Birmingham before moving to Canada, where he worked at the Connaught Research Laboratories at the University of Toronto. He soon returned to England to marry Joy Stanley on February 17, 1951 and subsequently took research positions with Glaxo and later the Animal Health Trust. In 1958, Geoff was ready for a new adventure so he sought a position with the Australian government. He was hired, so Joy and Geoff moved their young family to Rockhampton, Australia where he conducted research aimed at developing cattle breeds adapted to tropical climates. In 1960, he earned the first Ph.D. awarded externally by the University of Liverpool, which also awarded him a D.Sc. in 1967 in recognition of excellence in published research. In 1964, Geoff joined the University of Hawaii as a faculty member in the Department of Genetics, where he worked until retiring in 1997. He was part of the original faculty of the John A. Burns School of Medicine and served as department chair for Genetics for more than 15 years, He was appointed Vice- Chancellor of Academic Affairs for the Manoa Campus during the 1970s and continued to serve on various campus committees and work groups after returning to the Genetics department. His international reputation resulted in requests to deliver presentations at professional conferences around the globe. Geoff never lost his love of travel and, with Joy, visited more than one hundred countries and all seven continents. In retirement, he took leadership roles in the Adventurers’ Club of Honolulu and was an active member of the British Commonwealth Club of Hawaii and in the Zone 12 Photo Club. He is survived by his wife of 61 years, Joy; daughters Carolyn (David) Gire, Kathryn (Bill) Sthay, Dr. Melinda Ashton (Dr. Ken Perske); son Jon Ashton and daughter-in-law Diane Ashton; grandchildren Julian, Jennifer and Christopher Gire, Adam (Allison) Sthay, Samantha (Sean) Fannon, Scott Perske, and Geoffrey M. and Lindsey Ashton; great-grandson Ashton Sthay.
