Dear friends and family,
This is Stefanie, Harris's daughter. It is with a broken heart that I must report my father passed away from a sudden and rare form of heart attack this past Friday night.
He was the healthiest man I knew - didn't consume meat, sugar, salt, alcohol, or caffeine - and the kindest, strongest, most generous father I could have asked for. I want you all to know that he fought so hard to stay with us, and that we had extraordinary care. He beat the odds, surviving days after they told us it was over, and reaching out to us from his hospital bed to let us know he knew we were there, and that he was going to fight for us. He was that kind of man.
We know he touched so many. **Please feel free to tell us your stories by messaging him here. We will collect them to share later.**
The funereal will likely be on January 11 at Mililani, but I will update here with a confirmed date and time tomorrow.
With much love and aloha,
The Okuda family.
