In the February Ka Wai Ola O OHA issue the phone number for the Kaaa family pienie was inadvertently switched. We understand, however, that the pienie was well attended, and a success. In the December 1988 issue, a photo of Mrs. Caroline Kaaa was miscaptioned. Ka Wai Ola O OHA regrets the errors. Also, our apologies to entertainer and author Kimo Alama, who was incorrectly identified as the son of Sam Alama, who is actually his granduncle. According to the family, Sam Alama was originally from Hana, and was a well-known performer in the 1930s with his own Hawaiian music band. He now lives in Samoa. Kimo Alama's parents are David "Kaui" Alama and Geraldine Souza Alama.
