SUE S. MURANAKA
83, of Kailua, Hawai’i, went to be with her Lord in Heaven on May 18,

Sue was born on February 7, 1938 in Ookala, on the Big Island. She
retired in 1993 after 30 years of shaping young lives as a teacher at
Kainalu Elementary School. She especially enjoyed cooking, playing
golf, gardening, traveling, and spending time with family and friends.
Her biggest joys were her granddaughters.

kindness always made others feel loved. She would welcome a
stranger as a friend, forgave easily and lived her life by the amazing
grace of God.

Yim (Willard, deceased) and Kevin (Toni); granddaughters Mahina and
