Editor’s note: Once I was ushering at The Palace Theater in Hilo, Hawaii for Jake’s concert. He walked in anonymously from the front lobby, came up to me and said “thanks for helping Auntie”, and kissed me on the cheek. Star power! And I had never met him before, but he called me “Auntie”, an endearing term for the elderly in Hawaii.
