WOW...What more can be said about the reunion and the Awesome commttee. and also the great work by our cousin Linette in formatting our family book. What a great blessing to have been their and too share this great experience with my two childran Jamie and Ashley. Not only did the reunion give us an opportuniy to meet other family members. But it also allowed me time to spend with my Mother (Paolo) my brothers, Sisters and all of their families. It was like a reunion within a reunion, and I'm sure many of you felt the same way. To all of you, my family who took part in our reunion.....YOU ROCK.
With lots of Alofa

Talofa Su'a Family,

My name is Sa Tanielu I am one of six children of the late Mafuli Su'a Tanielu. I just wanted to stop by and say hi as well. Ever since the passing of our mother we lost communication with alot of you. I wish we never lost touch but due to the unfortunate circumstance of loosing our mother I believe it was the same time we lost touch with our Su'a family . I am thankful for facebook and to Ricki Liufau I was able to get this web address and was able to look at how big the family is and how much you all have grown. I heard some rumors about this years reunion months ago but didn't realize it was this week. Now that I know, I am looking forward to letting my family know so we can try to make it to one of the nights to meet everyone.

much alofa's,

Talofa and Aloha Family!!!  My name is Ma'aola, youngest daughter of Ruta, which is the youngest daughter of Fasi.  It was heart-warming to see old familiar faces on this website.  Brings back old memories of how all the cousins use to live close and how they were so close with each other.  My mom really loved her family.  I'm hoping/praying that I will be able to attend this family reunion. My regards to all and my love to all of you... 

Just wanted to stop by and say HELLO to our family.....Good job Namele and to all those in the committee...hope everyone is doing well.....

Malo e lelei & Talofa:  I was born in Auto, Am. Samoa, raised in Laie,HI.  My father was Puipuifatu Fiso and my mom was Aliitasi Malepeai Puepuemai Fagueli.  I am the 2nd oldest of 7 children:  Tolo(deceased), me, Dofi, Fatu Jr., Tigi, Ololua, & Tony(deceased).  Our line begins from Alipate/Taiana>Kiata>Losa>Sefelina> Puipuifatu>me.  Our last reunion in 1986 in Hawaii was so memorable that I cannot forget our talent show where Am. Samoa brought down the house with the Korean Love Song.  I used to live in Mesepa, Am. Samoa for a time and moved up to Utah.  I hope we can fill more pages of our genealogy with new additions to our lineage and take more photos with  family members.  Thank U to the Cali committee members and the website hostess in keeping us connected and excited for our reunion.  Shout out to all our Samoa, Laie, Carson, and Utah cousins....don't miss this reunion, plz!  I expect our own Suapa'ia Family Idol show to rock!  Alofa tele mo le tatou aiga pele, Cuzin Oli

I have 2 older brothers, Stephen Manaia & Stanley William Filiaga. I am currently married to Lauoi Mageo from Pago.

hhhhmmmm..........many of kudos to google.com  that tackled my curiousity at http://www.suapaiafamilyreunion2009.com it was reason enough after typing my first name with results of 3 pulusila's; took another chance, typed my mother's first name and maiden name filiaga - that alone continued my search that intensified my curiousity - 4 results transmitted my search of maria filiaga (maria is mother's name) that led me to his site!!!! 

thanks to maria filiaga listed on the guest book with her message.....that concluded my curiousity concerning the origin of my first name (maria filiaga listed on this guest book list of which I am assuming is my aunt - my mother's name is maria as well) 

i have spoken to aunty logo and uncle aiva via telephone once in the past - unfortunately with limited time on my hands i was unable to meet her or any of the filiaga family....mother rarely speaks of the filiaga side - i've questioned it in the past - unsure of which manner at how to approach that side of the family - i've never met my grandfather or any of his family - i am named after grandfather - but unfortunately and sadly enough i never met him !!!!

amazing at how one can identify let alone quantify the origin or root of a name by the split second of a click on the world wide web....now that i have identified the existence of my name....i would want now to absorb the root and branches of my name "pulusila" - thank you!!!

**** Hello all my name is Pulusila; Brooklyn, New York is my home - I travel 5 times out of the year - It is a must at the last leg of my travels I visit Hawaii the ending of every year and spend the last 3 months of every year in Hawaii. 

I am a freelance journalist - my niche is history and religion. As a surprise I am currently working with a partner on disecting and identifying the translation of the bible from it's original precepts and form from the hebrew language to the english language - considering that religion is a powerful force and belief with this family - this is not only a surprise but a coincidence *i'm completely stoked* !!!!!

Now considering that a freelance journalist does not please the means of my financial burdens at times; i am also a public accountant.

**** I am filled with excitement as I write this!!! I do have the tendency to steer off subject when filled with excitement......I'f you have any questions feel free to email me at anytime!!!

A little bit more about me. I am identified and observed at by different people with different definitions as to how they merit my stature. Some convoluted; some well reserved - for the most part scathing. Mother would always say that I am stubborn - Mother is mother and I love her dearly. I am free spirited Pulusila; soulfully and desireably I enjoy it and live it happily that way :-)
Mother would spramp comments at how I am the image of grandfather Pulusila. I obviously wouldn't know; yet that remains to be seen or told by others besides mother. 

I do hope to meet many of you real soon. 

I do wish you all a blessed thanksgiving and holiday filled with tales of love with family for family and generations of happiness and humility.

Thank you
Pulusila

The internet is so amazing. I may have found my Samoan heritage and possibility to learn more about my roots.

Aloha to you all.   Thanks Namele for a job very done.  It is so nice to come in here and learn more about all my aiga.  Keep up the good work.  

Hello family.  Finally found my way into your family website.  For awhile I thought I would never get in.  The site is great, all your hard work shows here.  Best of luck with your continued plans for reunion.  I doubt that I can make it there but my heart, thoughts and prayers go with all of you who are planning, arranging and making it happen.   Alofa Tele to all of you,  Auntie Moki
