Colin M.
sorry to hear of Mike's passing. I knew Big Mike (there was two Michael Tada's that were the same age growing up in Palolo Valley) since second grade. we met at cub scouts held at the church near the Tada house. we went to Jarrett and KHS together and I remember him being on the swim team for our school. I would run into him occasionally when he was at Hawaii Kai Long's and since I 've moved back to the valley in 1997, more often when he moved to the Kaimuki store. I wrote all of that to say: he was always, ALWAYS friendly with me and although we didn't "hang out", I consider him a good friend and a friend of the family. needless to say, I'm shocked in hearing of his passing and I regret not having known about this until a few days ago (4/11/2019).Rest In Piece Mike and may God watch over you!
