🏈 IN MEMORIAM | WAYNE KAUSCHI KANEAIÁKALA 🕊️

Our football officiating community mourns the passing of former football official Wayne Kauschi Kaneaiákala.

Wayne’s time on the field, dedication to the game, and fellowship with his fellow officials will be remembered by those who had the privilege of knowing and working alongside him.

We extend our heartfelt condolences and prayers to Wayne’s family, friends, fellow officials, and all whose lives he touched during this difficult time.

May the memories shared, the friendships built, and the impact he made bring comfort to those who mourn his loss.

Rest in peace, Wayne. Your final whistle may have sounded, but your impact on the game and those around you will not be forgotten. 🏈🕊️

Today we pause to remember September 11. A day of sorrow, sacrifice, and unity. We honor the lives lost, the courage of the first responders, and the resilience of a nation that stood together in its darkest hour. 🇺🇸

✨ Big congratulations to our members of the OFOA! ✨

We’re proud to celebrate Hardy Spoehr being inducted into the Hawaii Sports Officials Hall of Fame—a true honor that recognizes years of dedication, integrity, and passion for the game.

And let’s give a special salute to our very own Craig Shaner who was named Football Official of the Year! 🏈👏 Your hard work on and off the field sets the standard for excellence.

From Friday nights under the lights to the biggest stages in Hawaii, you continue to make us proud. 🏆

Thank you to all of our members of the OFOA that came out to celebrate our end of the season. We appreciate the effort and the dedication to making our association stronger and better. Enjoy your offseason and we will see you soon. #reflife #ofoa #highschoolfootballofficials🏈
