From The Mailbag – Emma Tomimbang Burns

Dear Karleen and the Staff of The Hawai‘i Herald,

I have been deeply touched by the outpouring of love and kind thoughts from those who knew my late husband, Jim Burns.

Many of them cited the Herald’s article — written so beautifully by contributing writer Richard Borreca, with the sidebar text of the speech that Jim wrote about his mom, Beatrice Burns, which writer Gregg Kakesako uncovered.
