Mahalo for sharing this amazing history of Hana. As a resident of Hana, it is good that there still is the push back for progress. Still a simple village with lots of Aloha. Seeing the original Hasagawa General Store and how much Neil looks like his father Harry was interesting. Aloha!
Hi Emmalani Thank you for your comments. Its been over 33 years since I put the Hana show together. I'm glad it preserved some precious moments for you. It was a pleasure to meet so many wonderful people, including your grandmother, back then. Best Regards, Phil Wilson Former Producer/Director Hawaii Public Television
First time I went to Maui was Hana a couple weeks ago. I was also the 1st one in my whole family to go to Hawaii. Some even asked if I was a Chicana visiting and that meant a lot. It was absolutely gorgeous. Its unfortunate how often tourism affects the wild life and vegetation. It was wonderful to have learned about different traditions, beliefs and culture.
Hi Shadie I filmed this program February 1988. Seems like yesterday. What scene is your Papa in? Phil Wilson Former Producer/Director Hawaii Public Television
@@philwilson4937 My papa would be John jr. Hanchett, along with my great grandfather Harry Mitchell’s fruit stand. We now run that fruit stand in Keanae.❤️
@@shadieboeche143 I remember Harry Mitchell was ill but full of Aloha. Is Joanne Mitchell still alive ? Also, is John Hanchett and Milaneta still with us. I haven't been back to Hana since I did the show in 1988 I live in Kaneohe.Oahu
@@philwilson4937 Yes Joanne Mitchell is still alive, unfortunately her husband passed. My Papa John and his sister are still with us! But my Great grand father Harry Mitchell did pass away in 1994, but his spirit and legacy lives on within us.
