Hi, my name is Samara and I’m Ola’s little sister. My brother has been helping to search for missing people, successfully reuniting a family. They have not left the west side in order to help. My brother has amazing friends who have opened their home for he and his family to stay at and use internet to contact people during this tough time. Ola has lived in Lahaina practically his whole life, but the Maui fires have completely destroyed this beloved town. My brother’s business office and all contents have been burnt to the ground. Miraculously, their house is still standing, but due to smoke damage it is unlivable. They will need to do restoration to their whole home and for the time being they are still trying to figure out where to relocate, not sure what it looks like moving forward from here.
