Our love and prayers to ALL of his family! I met Keola (and Deb a little later) about 18 years ago while roleplaying my character outside of Crushbone in EverQuest. We all had so much fun with our online adventures that our friendship transcended the virtual world and we've stayed in touch over the years. My husband and I loved having such a down to earth and fun couple to game with and we were in shock to hear of his passing, more so since I had was just talking to Deb the night before and hearing about the projects they were working on. We had high hopes of starting some new adventures with them both again soon, but he will always live on in our memories!
I am very sorry to hear about this loss. Keola was a great man and a true friend. He will be missed in so many ways. The joy he brought to each person he met was unlike any other.
