Ka’ilipeleuli was born on a cold beautiful wintry starry morning at Ft Carson in Colorado Springs on December 16th 1981. High school sweet hearts Lisa and I were so excited to be having our first child after leaving Hawaii and both becoming part of the greatest fighting machine in the world with the brave men and women of the United States Army. One of the most empowering times of my entire life.
We lived off post in a little apartment which was strategically located by the slopes of the famous Broad Moor Hotel ski run. (Home Break) A major snow storm had passed through. I remember that night so vividly! Lisa was so determined, I knew that we needed to get to the hospital immediately. I was so excited, I drove out with the overnight bag on the top of the car roof sliding on the highway and all the way to hospital. Sure enough Lisa gave birth quickly. Lisa and I raised Kaili and his brother with so much love even after ending our marriage in 1988. We did the best parenting we could with the help and unconditional love of our incredible families and a host of family friends! I’m so proud of Lisa Jaber and the great job she continues to do with our two awesome sons!
I could write an entire book on the life and times of being a single father in this modern day world, trying my best to live my “dynamic” life and being a good pro-active father. The pure joy of raising Ka’ili and Alika and later their brothers Shawn and Kanai’a was by far my greatest contribution to this earth and our family legacy. I’m so proud of each one of them!
I do plan on writing a blog spot to honor each one of my sons. I truly believe that writing these inserts will be appreciated by my ohana now and our future family as they research their roots.
Let us fast forward to today! It was another birthday for our son. In the Christian traditions of our family. Kaili and Brandi were both baptized with their New Hope Ohana at Magic Island. I am happy to see my incredibly strong spirited son find Akua and Jesus Christ in his soul especially as he prepares to become a husband to Brandi and with Gods Blessing a Father! The cycle of life is a beautiful thing! Mahalo Ke Akua
16 Friday Jan 2015
At the age of 55, with so much to be thankful for. This morning my thoughts focus on the many blessings of my life! So many experiences and good times shared with so many incredible people from all parts of this great world of ours
But always first and foremost in my prayers and consciousness is for the health and happiness of my four sons.
My wish and prayers are for them to have the opportunity to see and experience the beauty of our magnificent earth and it’s good people. Our families have always had a positive spiritual approach to living our lives. My greatest challenge to my sons is to have them be good ambassadors of our family and our Hawaiian ethics. living and carrying on these good family values and promoting excellent mental, spiritual and physical well being to all others

I ask this in the name of Akua with the blessings our great ancestors that have left us and watch over us! I know my father watches over us always

I’am a proud father of four awesome son’s. By far one of my greatest accomplishments in my life. I love striving to be a good teacher and realist to my sons. Preaching and instilling integrity, valued friendships, hard work and the family responsibility of carrying on a 150 year Hopkins & Lucas legacy of caring and helping Hawaii’s monarchy and the people of these islands.
I was born and raised by a gifted honorable Hawaiian Episcopal preacher man, the late Reverend Charles Gordon Kamohoali’i Hopkins and simply the “best mother in the world” who comes from the Waimanalo Lucas Ohana steeped in Hawaiian traditions, religion, unconditional love and integrity. I’am brother to 3 amazing successful men and a soulful Hawaiian rooted sister.
We are the continuing legacy of Charles G Hopkins who came to the islands in 1832. He was a pivotal member of Kamehameha III and IV privy councils. He served as the Editor in chief to the only Hawaiian newspaper of that era, The Polynesian. He was instrumental in transitioning ceded land ownership of the monarchy and later bringing Healthcare to the Hawaiian people and saving thousands with vaccination programs.
We were blessed to have grown up as part of the old fishing & farming traditions of the Akana family in Kilauea Kauai from the 1960’s and 70’s. We were strongly influenced by the love and teachings of our parents and grandparents from Lanikai and Waimanalo.
We assisted our fathers Episcopal Ministry to so many Hawaiian families throughout the islands. Bringing all cultural spiritual belief’s together as one.
I attended Kaimuki Intermediate, where life transitioned from the Kauai country experience to the excitement of Oahu’s social, surfing and skateboarding style of life. Played football with the Kaimuki Eagles, and the Kalani Falcon High school program. Grew up with some amazing families, such as the Donahues, the McInerny ohana, the Warringtons, the Bradda Iz ohana, the UFC Legend John Hackelman ohana, the Blankenfield ohana, the Chris Cambra ohana, Sean Pulawa ohana, the Kit Lopez ohana, and the Henry Ayau ohana. All living the perfect dream of surfing, fishing and playing sports!
I was a dedicated student of 5 years to the teachings and love of Great grand Master Professor William Chow. Founder to Hawaii’s Hawaiian Chinese Kempo. Professor William Qi San Chow was truly “the hands of thunder and lightning”. I took his christian teachings and devastating martial arts style with me around the world and taught his basic survival techniques to hundreds of students! Aloha Professor Chow, your good spirit lives on in all your students!
During and after high school, I worked as a lighting and big band set up technician for the Harvey Ragsdale Orchestra, Country Comfort, and The Surfers. I also worked as a bartender, bellman, city and county auditorium usher and residential construction labor.
As a young 21 yr old adult, I married, started a family, and joined the Army. This period marked the beginning of my 14 yr federal service. Enlisting as a 64C motor vehicle operator and becoming a Generals driver and security detail for 2 years.
In 1983 I became part of the Civilian Federal Service for the department of Defense. Educated and recruited as a GS-5 Sports facilities manager and advancing to various GS-9 Sports and Community Directorship positions in Pearl Harbor, West Germany, Washington, Colorado, and Ft Leonard Wood.
1995-2002. I transitioned from a Youth Sports Director at MWR Pearl Harbor to becoming a contracted Executive Personal Assistant and Chief of Staff to many high net worth families in Hawaii.
2002- 2014 http://www.hopkinsoptions.com has provided independent contractual consultant services as a; Executive Personal Assistant, Estate manager, Executive property manager, Sales, Marketing, and Operations Management for profit and non-profit businesses alike.
“I have three precious things which I hold fast and prize. first is gentleness; the second is frugality; the third is humility, which keeps me from putting myself before others.
Be gentle and you can be bold; be frugal and you can be free; avoid putting yourself before others and you can become a leader among men.”
– Lao Tse, Tao te Ching
Oia Mau No Ke Aloha, “Love is forever”
