One of Kauai's North Shore's favorite sons passed away tragically late at night on Saturday, March 29th. Son of famed Kauai gentleman surfer Jimmy Lucas, Keoni was driving home late after work towards his Santa Monica, California home and fell asleep at the steering wheel. A memorial will be held Sunday morning at 11am at Point Dume State Beach, Westward Beach Road, Malibu, CA, Lifeguard Tower 1. His funeral will be held in Hawaii at a time still to be determined.
Lucas, a longtime surfer and sailboarder, was often pegged as a friendly, outgoing guy who was well respected throughout the Hawaiian surf community. He moved to Los Angeles to pursue a career in the film industry and was known to be a hard worker who always had a smile on his face and lived life to the fullest. He will be greatly missed.
