My Chief, My King ... Missing him always

I've never talked very much about this, only because it's too hard.

On July 19, 2010 we lost our beloved father, Faatui Pio Taliulu. Our dad was sick, he was in and out of the hospital, but he was still so strong! Hearing stories from my sisters during his last few days and weeks makes me so sad. You never know how it is to lose a parent, until you do. Can't describe it to you, but you can imagine what we were going through. All of us girls were such daddy's girls, I think I was the most though haha... I miss him so much! Its been 6 years and it still feels so brand new.

All we have now are pictures and memories of when he was here on this earth. I know my mom misses him the most, I mean they were husband and wife, partners in crime, eternal companions. I'm so glad mom has all of us here to keep her busy.

I really missing seeing our dad at moms church dances, he was always such a goofball and his dance moves were awesome! lol... One time he danced so hard that he collapsed and the ambulance came. I miss hearing his voice even though a lot of the time he sounds like he's yelling lol. I'm glad he was here for our oldest, Makisi, him and Kisi were such buddies, I was working then and would leave Makisi upstairs with him just until mom was home to watch him (it was maybe an hour or so before mom would be home). I remember my sisters would tell me the stories of when Makisi would be crying he'd try to make his bottles ( dad was pretty much blind during that time lol) and sometimes would give him mountain dew haha... I only wish he was here to enjoy my twins and the other kids that came after he had passed away. He loved his grand kids so much, him and mom did, mom still does...she spoils them so much when she can. Mom is such a strong woman and if I could be half the woman she is, that would be amazing!

Our mom never misses a holiday, she always hooks up our dads grave and his sister and brother each holiday.


We miss you so much daddy!! Kisses to the sky! Please watch over us daily, dad!
