The spirit of Aloha lives on in an employee of the Radisson Waikiki Prince Kuhio. A hotel employee, recently named Employee of the Year, donated a kidney to one of his customers!
The gentleman was in need of a kidney transplant. He had told Jose that he had a rare blood type and this made it highly unlikely that a matching donor would be found in time.
The people of Hawai’i never cease to amaze. I miss ‘em. 
I lived for close to 3 years in Kailua, not too far from you were, eh?
