Harry Baldwin Kanani Robins

ʻAno ʻai kākou me ke aloha. The friends and family have created this page for all to celebrate and remember the amazing life of Harry Baldwin Kanani Robins, a beloved father, husband, son, brother, uncle, cousin, and friend. We will be using this page to offer support, condolences, and love to Harryʻs ʻohana: his loving wife, Kalauihilani, his three children, Puʻuwai (27), Anuhea (23), and ʻEleu (21); and his grandson Kaʻiolana (2). Whether you needed help drawing plans, bringing tables and chairs to a party, changing your car oil, or anything, Uncle Harry would drop everything to be there for you. That's the kind of person he was: self-less, hard-working, and loving. He loved his trucks/cars, his puka shell lei collection, his home, and most importantly his 'ohana. Harry loved going to the beach, catching sets at Pray for Sets, hunting for shells at Mā‘ili, and camping in Mākua. He was an extremely gifted artist that manifested itself through his career in helping people create their dream homes. He was passionate about working on his vehicles and was most proud of his collection of American muscle cars. He was affectionately named the Puka Shell Man by his ʻohana, a reflection of his deep love for making lei and hunting for shells. To show his aloha for his ‘ohana, he made a puka shell lei for each of his mamo. In 2017, Harry suffered a stroke that set in motion a series of health challenges. He was diagnosed with having a weak heart and has been battling his condition for the past few years. Despite the pain and lethargy he experienced as a result of his condition, he always made time to take his moʻopuna to ʻauʻau kai at his favorite beaches. After several days of being unable to get sufficient rest and eat, he was admitted to Pali Momi Hospital to receive medical support and spent a few weeks fighting for his health. It was painful for him to walk and breathing became a difficult task. Shortly after his admission, his family received the heartbreaking news that Harry's condition was terminal. After heavy consideration and internal struggle, his loving wife, Kalauihilani made the difficult decision to bring him home to Waiʻanae, the ʻāina that raised his family and nurtured his soul. On May 19th, 2021, Harry passed in the home that he built with his father, surrounded by family that loved him. Join us as we kākoʻo (support) his ʻohana in navigating through these difficult times. We humbly ask that you support them in raising funds to support the financial and medical expenses, as well as share any moʻolelo (stories), photos, or memories you have of Harry. E laʻi ka ʻuhane i ka hoʻi aku me nā kūpuna a me ke Akua. E ola kona mau moʻolelo a me nā mamo o kona pūhaka. Aloha ʻoukou, Ka ‘Ohana Robins
