Hau`oli – To be glad; to rejoice; to express joy by singing.

Aloha!
Being that my wife’s birthday was February 2, this term is particularly timely and close to me. In the Hawaiian language, hauʻoli lā hānau, means Happy Birthday! I continue to sing in joy as I rejoice in her presence in my life!
Sing with me!!!

“We chose Dave because of his many years as a professional Real Estate agent here on Maui, and because of how much he gives back to the Maui community through his many volunteer activities.“
|

We chose Dave Futch as our sales agent when we decided to sell our home in Haiku and relocate to Kula to be closer to our children’s school. We chose Dave because of his many years as a professional Real Estate agent here on Maui, and because of how much he gives back to the Maui community through his many volunteer activities. He has been a resident on Maui for a very long time, and is active in many aspects of Maui life. Our experience with Dave was really great, and he dealt with some difficult issues like the true experienced professional he is.
