A LIFE WELL LIVED
These interviews are observations on childhood, family, and events that reflect the inner spirit of the interviewee, who lived from 1923 to 2001. Caroline Kuliaikanuʻukapu Wilcox DeLima Farias was a descendant of Hawaiian aliʻi and a grandniece of Robert W. K. Wilcox, a leader of the unsuccessful 1895 Hawaiian royalist rebellion that strove to restore Queen Liliʻiuokalani to the throne of a sovereign Kingdom of Hawaiʻi. My knowledge of the facts of Carol’s life rests on our many conversations during the thirty years of our friendship, as well as her family records and the seven interviews that comprise this book. The recordings of most of our conversations were conducted in a sitting room filled with antique koa furniture, heirloom furnishings, books, and photographs. Usually clad in a shortee or floor-length mu`umu`u, Auntie Carol’s enthusiasm for life was demonstrated in her animated dialogue with the many people she greeted. The warmth of her voice was punctuated by frequent nods and a jangling of bracelets made of carved wood, jade, or gold engraved with distinctive Hawaiian lettering.
There is a wealth of knowledge you can pass on to future generations!
IF YOU DON'T RECORD THEIR STORIES, WHO WILL?
My work on the Auntie Carol project has taken me over three decades,
so do not be discouraged about your own projects...
