Aaron Gabriel Cummings, 63, of Lihue passed away peacefully on June 21, 2020. Known especially for his impeccable drumming styles, he was an accomplished musician and entertainer. He was also an avid waterman who was happiest whenever he could be in the ocean. In fact, his favorite attire was a tee shirt, surf shorts and slippers – he was always ready in case the surf was up. Aaron was also a loving father, son, brother, cousin and “Papa” to his cherished grandsons.
He was preceded in death by his beautiful daughter Ka’iulani Cummings, and father Abraham “Bra” Cummings.
He is survived by his sons Daron (Chandi) Cummings and Kaili (Mandi) Panui, mother Dolly (Bob) Gabriel Mandap, brothers Abraham (Carol) Cummings and Willie Cummings, sisters Rinda (Kappy) Aiu, Mamo (Max) Graham, and Koki Cummings, grandsons Hazyn, Xaenon, Levi, Steel, Kaleb and Kholten, and numerous nieces, nephews, aunties and cousins.
The family wishes to extend its sincerest, heartfelt Mahalo Nui Loa to Donna Takiguchi (cousin) and Cindy Rodrigues (former wife/life-long friend) for their constant love and faithful care of Aaron, and to his doctors, nurses, and caregivers.
A private Celebration of Life Mass will be held.
Condolences can be mailed to: Daron Cummings, 3329 Elima Street, Lihue, HI 96766.
