Mr. Lambert Meheo Kanakaole Obituary - Visitation & Funeral Information

Lambert Meheo Kanakaole (Unko Lam) "I fought the fight, I finished the race, throughout the trial I kept my faith". Age 66, of Kahalu'u, was called home into the loving embrace of our Heavenly Father, on May 11, 2018, at Castle Medical Center, with his loving wife Kathy and daughter Cherise by his side. He was born on September 10, 1951, in Pearl City, Hawaii. Lambert had an undeniable love for God and praised Him until he took his last breath. His faith in God captured the hearts of all who knew him and even brought some to repentance and acceptance of Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior. He had a kind heart, a generous soul, and a rascal wit that endeared him to so many. Lambert was a devoted and loving husband and father. He loved music and could play any instrument with strings, he had a beautiful falsetto voice. He loved the ocean and would spend his free time diving, fishing and body surfing; in his younger years he was a fisherman and was lost at sea for 55 days. He was a retired School Bus Driver. He is survived and forever remembered by his loving and devoted wife Kathy Kanakaole; daughter Cherise Kanakaole; Mother Vilma Aleka, Stepmother Florence Asperilla Brothers William Jr, Mitchell, Mark, and Martin Kanakaole and Matthew, Dwayne, and William Asperilla; Sisters Dallas Napolis and Veronica Tarleton. Many nephews and nieces. He is reunited in Heaven with his beloved son Matthew Kaleo'okalani Kanakaole, father, William Kanakaole Sr., and sister Jacqueline Kanakaole. The Kanakaole family wishes to thank all of the family and friends that stood beside Lambert during the last six months of his life and most especially all the Windward Dialysis staff, Castle Medical Center doctors and nurses; Bristol Hospice team; and Terrence his caregiver; for all of their help and support during the most difficult season of his life.
