Russel and Annie started their life long love affair when they both attended St. Anthony High School. After they graduated they went away to Arizona for college. But family ties were always important. When my daughter, Cori Malia Kauhaahaa was born in 1975. They made it a priority to come home to Maui and see her. The first photo is Russel, Annie and Cori in the DeCoite family home. Second photo...St. Anthony Prom
When my sister Annie and I returned to Maui in 1995 to care for our mother who was ill. Russel sought Annie out, they went on a romantic date and were together since that day and created a beautiful life together. Filled with family, horses, cattle and ranching. ❤️
