DAVIS DENNIS HIGA

Devoted husband and father, Davis Dennis Higa, 67, passed away peacefully on April 25, 2018 at his home in Kaneohe, surrounded by his loving family.

He was an active member of the Japanese Chamber of Commerce and in his retirement, enjoyed collecting Japanese art, gardening, and was an avid fan and season ticket holder for University of Hawai’i Football.
