Dennis Dooley Pavao graced our world from Wednesday, July 11, 1951, to Friday, January 18, 2002.
He was just 50 when he left us, passing from a brain aneurysm.
Dennis debuted with the trio, Hui Ohana, making their 1st recording on June 29, 1972.
After the breakup of the group in the mid-1980s, Dennis continued to perform as a soloist.
In 1986, he released his Hoku Award winning album, “Ka Leo Ki’eki’e”.
We’ll share this album as we honor our dearly departed friend.
