RIP a beautiful person
Happy birthday aunty.
Deliana was a true public health professional and cherished leader for the Association of Maternal & Child Health Programs. She could always be counted on to contribute in her quiet but thoughtful and effective way at our meetings in Washington, DC - even after brutally long flights and major time zone changes. I had the pleasure of working with her starting about 15 years ago through a committee I staffed for the Association of State and Territorial Health Officials and later through her service on the AMCHP Board. Her cultural pride and generous spirit were exemplified by showering our staff with gifts of chocolate covered macadamia nuts and Kona coffee. She embraced the responsibility for MCH professionals to be advocates for the populations we serve by consistently educating her elected officials, as demonstrated in this photo of her meeting with staff for the late Sen. Daniel Inouye. The mark she made on this world will not be forgotten, and she will be missed. My condolences to her friends, family and colleagues. - Brent Ewig
I did not know Deliana well but had the privilege of working with her on a project that was near and dear to her heart as it meant broadening access to health insurance for everyone in our state. Her commitment and dedication to improving the lives and living for all the people of Hawaii was the driving force of her life. She had the respect of all as well as the love of many more. I extend my deepest sympathy to her family and to her ohana at the Department of Health. May your memories of Deliana comfort you.

I knew Deliana as a selfless advocate for children and other vulnerable populations in the state of Hawaii and in our great country. She always was more than willing to volunteer to do more, to go above and beyond what anyone asked or expected. Deliana was a quiet leader, she was humble and she cared about people. She will be missed by her AMCHP friends and many more, I know. Deliana, your work here is done and you did a stupendous job! Now work your magic up there. Nan Streeter, Salt Lake City, Utah
Loretta was one of our choir ohana. We love her and will miss her dearly.

Loretta was an exemplary public servant who dedicated her life to improving the well-being young children and their families. She made sure investments in preventive services accomplished their objectives. She will be missed by her many colleagues in Hawaii and across the county. Deborah Daro
Loretta devoted her life to children she would never meet and in so doing inspired numbers of us to do the same. Her life made a difference and it ended way too soon... Anna Cohn Donnelly
