Donovan Bernard Park Soares, also known as "Donny", 48, passed away on Thursday, July 26, 2018, in Kaneohe, Hawaii. Donny was born on December 30, 1969 to Gordon Bernard Soares and Virginia Ku'ulei (Park) Soares in beautiful Kailua, Oahu. He attended and graduated from Kailua High School in 1988. He later became a Certified Auto Mechanic for Mike McKenna car dealership. He was a loving, caring young man with a beautiful smile that would light up the room. Donny also loved the outdoors and anything with wheels. During his free time you'd probably catch him outside riding dirt bike and or four wheeling up in the mountains with his Jeep and trucks; he was passionate about building and driving anything on wheels. Donny was a very humble person who enjoyed listening to Reggae music and his favorite singer was Bob Marley. Danielle who was the love of his life described Donovan as a strong and handsome man with a beautiful soul. Danielle will forever love him. Donovan is sadly missed and survived by his loving mother, Virginia Ku'ulei (Andy) Thomas; father, Gordon Soares; sister, Chivas Kanani (Joseph) Niau; the love of his life, Danielle; and son, Donson Ka'eo Park Soares; niece Hilina'i and nephew Tehiwa Niau.
