Dear Darah, On Wednesday, April13,Ihada3 p.m. appointment for TSA PreCheck and due to the of- fice being short staffed, faced an hour and a half wait. The waiting room was full and 10- 12 of us overflowed into the hallway.

did the supervisor keep my meter fed, but they also both made the waiting a pleasant experience with their polite company and great conversa- tion. I hope the supervisor has a great time on his upcoming trip to Disney World.
They truly resemble Serv- co’s core values of respect, service, teamwork and in- novation, both inside and outside of the workplace,” says a spokesperson for Subaru Hawai‘i.
I would like to share my appreciation and big mahalo to the person who assisted me with a flat tire on the H-2 Mililani overpass going south one afternoon.
We were YouTubing how to change a spare when Sylva’s Towing came down the ramp and pulled over. The driver grabbed his tools, switched the tire in no time and didn’t accept any payment.

Mahalo nui to Sylva’s Towing for showing profes- sionalism, compassion and heroism. What a blessing this person is, and just an- other reminder that guard- ian angels are among us.
All three of us with a 3 p.m. appointment were parked in a metered lot about a block away.
Kudos, too, to the staff at IdentoGO, for keeping calm and making sure everyone with an appointment was served.
Dear Darah,
Mahalo nui loa to the per- son driving Sylva’s Towing for helping us. You’re the best. Such aloha.
I want to express many, many thanks to the gentle- men from Subaru. Not only
