Known as “Aunty” she was one of the top female Hawaiian falsetto singers. A recipient of numerous awards and grandmother to 40 grand children, she was much more than just a singer. Keawe was a beloved Hawaii icon living and representing aloha.

Learning the Hawaiian language, from her mother in-law Keawe was quoted in the Star Bulletin, that it helped her better understand the nuances of the Hawaiian songs she sang and later became famous for. Keawe was a mentor and inspiration to many younger musicians and performers. She always shared her time encouraging the next generation to respect and learn the Hawaiian language.
