Mathew R. Sgan

When not dancing and talking with tourists, fellow citizens of Hawaii, family, and friends, octogenarian Mathew R. Sgan spends time writing, reading, and learning. Shaka and Shalom will be his fifth book since coming to Hawaii with his beloved wife, Mabel 'Gin' Lum Sgan in fulfillment of a promise to her that, upon her retirement from college teaching, they would move to Hawaii to be near her family. Arriving In Hawaii in 2000, Mathew set up a business called Non Profit Fundraising Services. He and his business were privileged and fortunate to be selected to lead the team that raised the funds needed to rebuild the Visitor Center shoreside of the iconic USS Arizona Memorial at Pearl Harbor. Eventually, some 54 million public/private dollars was raised for that purpose. Finally, Mathew had a third act for the story of his life.
