Emaloni Takitoa Lutui

Family and friends, although our hearts are completely shattered with the loss of our beloved brother Loni. With our whole hearts we want to express our deepest gratitude and love to everybody who has been reaching out to our family at this extremely heartbreaking time. The outpouring of love for Loni has truly been so humbling for our family. We have seen all the stories and love that are being shared with us and we appreciate you all so very much.

In regards to honoring Loni's life and legacy, all we want is to provide him with the funeral he truly deserves. Loni was the most loving and dedicated father to his sweet 2 year old son. He was the most loyal and caring son to our mother Maopa, who is a very hardworking single mother. He was the most selfless and compassionate grandson whenever it came to our grandparents and helping them with anything they needed. And of course he was the most loving, protective and empathetic brother to us as his sisters as well as his 2 other brothers. Loni lived to serve others and always genuinely saw the good in everyone. He was passionate in his purpose and intentionally sought out a career in civil service to serve and protect not just us and our family, but also our community. For anyone who would like to donate, our family greatly appreciates your contribution in helping our family send Loni back home to our Father in Heaven. Ofa Lahi Atu and all our love...Litia, Hinalei & Nesi
