HPR All Things Considered host Dave Lawrence remembers entertainment legend and Valley Isle resident Kris Kristofferson, who recently died at 88. Kris joined Dave for a chat in 2011 ahead of a benefit show he was doing for Maui's Lokelani ʻOhana nonprofit that supports people with intellectual and developmental disabilities.
Kris took time to share a lot about ways his time in Hawaiʻi proved to be among the most inspiring chapters of his life, this from a man who went to Oxford, served in the military, was a star of screen and music, yet remained "uncle" to many in Hana, where he lived.
