For 32 wonderful years he and Eileen traveled to Waikiki Beach. He had a passion for canoeing, putting thousands of miles on the family heirloom canoe. A true handyman, he could fix anything. Reino was an avid reader especially in the sciences. As a skilled photographer he would always joke that he kept Kodak in business. Reino loved to talk and share his stories, he will lovingly be remembered as a hardworking, good man.
