Memorial by Rasul Lozano

Mother Dham-Ishvari loved nature, and has been camping for years on Kauai. He said on her visits to the Garden Island, she would walk along the beaches to collect shells to make leis. She also was a devotee who took part in various outdoor religious retreats on Maui.

She played the tamboura and enjoyed East Indian classical music. "She was a very spiritual person," Lozano said. "She cared a lot about people."
