Forever 3
Leaving behind a legacy of pure love, infectious laughter, and the biggest heart filled with immense curiosity for the world and nature around him.
Makari was diagnosed with autism at the age of 2 and although he hadn't started school just yet, Kari made sure everyone knew their numbers, colors, ABC's, and animals. He was quick to let you know Lions and Elephants were his favorite animals. Let's not forget his love for dinosaurs either. Makari loved books as well, whenever he found a good book he would pull you by the hand and make sure you read to him.
Now if you didn't see him with a book in his hand, Makari loved going to the park, blowing bubbles, along with him watching learning videos and playing games on his iPad. Kari loved his little sister, J'ava. She followed him around, did what he did and adored her "bubby". They would
play and be mischievous together. One of their favorite activities was to take out all their toys and spread them around the room. When caught in action, they would stop and flash their sweet little smiles.
Kari was an organ donor and the family hopes that his donation will help others to enjoy the activities he did. Heaven truly gained an angel.
