A funeral procession for a Hawaiian truck driver who died a few days ago in a wreck. Over 60 semis came through town with horns blazing. Amazing sound!

... and staging along the highway out of town, for the ride to Kona:

He must have been a well liked guy.
Was his coffin on the back of the lead truck?

I'm not sure, but the red SUV with blacked out windows was in the lead. A friend wrote, "I saw them at Church Row where they filled the whole grass area. They never should have taken out the emergency escape ramps heading into Kona. It was Kurt, one of Bertleman's drivers, that lost his brakes on the down grade. Looks like he was well liked in the trucker community."
