The teachings and legacy of Uncle Ed Lindsey. You\u2019ve got to look at the whole enchilada,\u201d Uncle Ed Lindsey would say, pausing to let the assembled group absorb his message.<\/h3><\/div><\/div><\/div>

In the years we served on the Maui Tomorrow Foundation board together, I grew to appreciate his commonsense approach. He offered his opinion with clarity and the strength of purpose of a steersman dipping his oar into the water to guide his outrigger through turbulent swells.<\/p>\n

A lifelong educator, Lahaina native Edwin Robert Naleilehua Lindsey, Jr. taught school for twenty-five years in Hana and Wailuku. But in his \u201cretirement\u201d he undertook a number of cultural restoration projects that will long define a legacy steeped in Hawaiian values.<\/p>\n

Indeed, Lindsey was an ambassador of aloha in the fullest meaning of the word.<\/p>\n

On a warm, sunny Friday afternoon an overflow crowd filled Waiola Church in Lahaina; an elegant historic structure that well suits the man. Hundreds, young and old, gathered in aloha-wear for the celebration of a life well lived. In contrast to the choked up sadness of some memorial services, a sense of peace wafted through the plumeria-scented air. Uncle Ed\u2019s physical body had succumbed to cancer, but not before he passed his gifts to countless students, family, and friends.<\/p>\n

Lindsey\u2019s sister Roselle Bailey offered an oli (chant), lamenting, \u201cAuwe, auwe!\u201d The wailing sadness at his passing ended in joyful prayer, as Bailey expained, \u201cHis spirit has joined the ancestors at Pu`u Kukui, and the rainbow has embraced him.\u201d<\/p>\n

Bailey then spoke of her brother\u2019s tireless endeavors. \u201cHe established a really wonderful foundation of his work. The burden is now on us,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

<\/span><\/div><\/div><\/div>

Recognizing the inseparable link between Hawaiian culture and the environment, Lindsey helped create organizations designed to malama (take care of) the land and the sea. In 2002, Lindsey founded Maui Cultural Lands, Inc. with the aim of restoring cultural ruins in West Maui\u2019s Honokowai Valley and educating the public about the \u2018aina. For years he led groups there every Saturday to remove invasive plants and uncover long-forgotten foundations and rock walls of taro lo`i.<\/p>\n

Maui Cultural Lands has also established ongoing projects in Ukumehame as well as the lands near the Kaheawa Pastures wind farm.<\/p>\n

MCL\u2019s Web site quotes Lindsey in its strategic plan: \u201cPeople who help the land and the culture, who give unselfishly for the sake of the land, they are the heroes, the real warriors.\u201d These are words that befit the man himself.<\/p>\n

When the Maui County Council honored Lindsey with a resolution last May, well-wishers packed the council chambers in appreciation. Among them were representatives from Na Kapuna O Maui, Lahaina Hawaiian Civic Club, Kaanapali 2020, and Maui Tomorrow.<\/p>\n

Uncle Ed also was instrumental in Kilakila O Haleakala, a group that assesses the cultural significance of Maui\u2019s landmark volcanic mountain in light of the proposed solar telescope. He was a co-founder and president of the `Ohana Coalition, a registered Political Action Committee begun in 2002 with the intent of electing candidates on the basis of shared values rather than backgrounds or political parties. He hoped the group would help voters choose candidates who would act in the public\u2019s interest rather than that of big business.<\/p>\n

In 2007 he helped launch the Maui Nui Marine Resources Council. The young organization addresses fishing licenses, bag limits, cultural fishing rights, aquarium collecting, and other key issues impacting our near shore waters.<\/p>\n

Like so many of the organizations he helped create, the MNMRC grew out of earlier protection efforts. I recall Uncle Ed\u2019s forceful testimony during DLNR meeting on a proposed partial ban on gill net fishing, a debate that remained volatile for years.<\/p>\n

Uncle Ed stood in the Maui Waena Intermediate School cafeteria and spoke sternly, contradicting those who said lay gill nets were a cultural right.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

\u201cIf we\u2019re talking Hawaiian culture, let\u2019s talk about it,\u201d he said. \u201cNo more fish, no more Hawaiian culture.\u201d<\/h2><\/div><\/div><\/div>

Lindsey was given the Malama I Ke Kai Kupuna award at Last April\u2019s \u201cMore Fish in the Sea: E Ola Kai, E Ola Kakou\u201d event, held at Maui Community College. With cancer spreading painfully into his bones, Uncle Ed leaned on a cane as came forward to receive flower lei and accolades.<\/p>\n

Kekoa Enomoto\u2019s Maui News article about the award captured Lindsey\u2019s concluding words: \u201cAloha is love and compassion and honesty, to give freely without expecting in return, to share. Aloha is life: when you aloha each other, you give life to each other.\u201d<\/p>\n

Councilmember Sol Kaho`ohalahala, speaking at the memorial service, reminded the audience of the values Lindsey carried so proudly: Malama, to take care of the land, the sea, and the people; Ho`omanawanui, to have patience; and Aloha, \u201cthe essence of who we are.\u201d Kaho`ohalalhala played his ukulele at the service alongside musical luminaries Sheldon Brown, George Kahumoku, Jr., and Joe Cano.<\/p>\n

\u201cIn his last days,\u201d said Kaho`ohalahala, \u201cEd talked about peace\u2014world peace\u2014something I never heard him talk about before. \u2018If the world would understand and live in aloha,\u2019 he said, \u2018there would be world peace.’\u201d<\/p>\n

I knew Uncle Ed Lindsey only for the last twelve years of his life, and find myself gravitating to two words describing my impressions of him: dignity and integrity. His sense of humor was sharp, and he often brought irony into a discussion to bring home a point.<\/p>\n

\u201cGolf courses and archaeological sites don\u2019t mix,\u201d Lindsey told a large audience at the South Maui Forum in early 2007, gathered to hear about possible impacts from the proposed Wailea 670 and Makena projects. Asked what areas in South Maui merited preservation, he answered, \u201cI cry for what\u2019s happening to the Hawaiian people here. It\u2019s a crime.\u201d<\/p>\n

He bluntly shared his opinion of the developer\u2019s choice of adopting the name Honua`ula for their Wailea project. \u201cIt\u2019s window-dressing,\u201d he said. \u201cYou need to be worthy of that name. You had better put Hawaiian spirit and values in there before you do anything.\u201d<\/p>\n

The chicken-skin moment of the memorial service came when Puanani, his wife of forty-five years, shared a song she had written earlier that day. Playing uke and singing in English, she sang with deep love cascading from her heart. Emotion washed over those gathered, and many reached for tissues. As she finished she leaned to the microphone before stepping away and said, \u201cFor my love..\u201d<\/p>\n

The following morning, as crowds assembled for the annual Makawao Rodeo Parade, I saw many of the faces from the prior day. I recalled 11 years earlier when I donned a chartreuse t-shirt that read, \u201cEd Lindsey-Mayor 1998.\u201d The parade was a familiar place for political candidates, and Uncle Ed was surely someone I felt motivated to support.<\/p>\n

His candidacy never it made it past the primary election, though the issues and values he raised elevated election-year discussions. Little would I have expected that his example of boldly jumping into the political fray would be a path I myself would follow in years to come. Two years later, in 2000, I called Uncle Ed on short notice and asked him to provide a blessing at my wedding to my sweetheart, Heather. Obliging our request, Uncle Ed offered an invocation with great dignity and reverence, calling in the ancestors and spirits to come and celebrate our blessed union. Nine years later, we remain as grateful as we did on our wedding day.<\/p>\n

Ed Lindsey was a friend and hero to many, and a spirited warrior for the `aina. Though we will miss him in our daily musings, his journeys and work are now complete, and he is now among the ancestors we may call to bless our endeavors. As his sister Roselle said, now it\u2019s up to us.<\/p>\n
