As 2026 rapidly comes to an end, HEA would like to remember the faithful members of our HEA community who have passed away.
These members generosity supported our mission, sharing their commitment to education and enriching the lives of Hawai‘i educators at every stage of their career.
We extend our sympathy to their families and loved ones. We remember them with gratitude, respect, and fondness, and their kindness will always be remembered
by the HEA ‘ohana.
