Ideas and Information from a Maui Perspective
There are a lot(!) of Steve Roses in the world.  This site is for Steven W. Rose of Maui.  However, we also (casually) maintain a page for all the other Steves, at www.steverose.org.  If you are a Steve Rose (or anything close) and wish to be added to the contact list there, just click on addme.

Greetings from  the Roses, Tupuas, and Valles!

There have been a few changes since our family picture was first published in 2002.  
Alea married Kapuni Tupua, and they have two wonderful daughters, Heali'imailani and Hi'ilani, and a son, Leuluahi..
Frank left us in 2006, dying on his own terms just as he had lived. 
My mom, Elizabeth Morris, left in the same year.  They both made it to 91!  We miss them.
Makana married Tyson Valle, and they are living in our cabin out on the land with their son, A'ali'i, and daughter, Hoakaleimauloa.  Pictures of everyone soon to follow.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

(There are at least three Steve Roses on Maui.  I'm not the Viral, Guerrilla, or Gorilla Marketing Steve, or the Hotel Steve, or the Tropical Fish / Photographer Steve.  I'm the technoid who has been here since 1971.)
