This volume has benefited from the contributions of many in the town who donated pictures and offered their stories. The major players who are responsible for its content are all members of the Kapa'a community; many grew up here. They are Marta Hulsman, Andy Bushnell, Wilma Chandler, Bill and Judie Fernandez, Linda Kaialoa, Linda Moriarty, and Herman Texeira. A special mahalo is given to the many families of Kapa'a who shared their history with us.
