Nā Leo TV to broadcast memorial service honoring late Hawai‘i County Fire Chief Todd

Nā Leo TV, Hawai‘i Island’s community access television station, will provide a live broadcast of the memorial service honoring Hawai‘i County Fire Chief Kazuo Scott Kuika‘aeleopelepohākalani Leithead Todd on Jan. 11 from the Afook-Chinen Civic Auditorium in Hilo.

Todd passed away suddenly in December after suffering from a cardiac event. He was honored on Wednesday during the Hawai‘i County Council meeting with a resolution that expressed the council’s profound condolences to his ʻohana, loved ones and colleagues, recognizing his more than two decades of dedicated service to the county and the state.

He was 45.

The reflection period will take place from noon, followed by a memorial service broadcast beginning at 2 p.m. The opening ceremony will feature an honor guard and invocation, followed by remembrances shared by dignitaries and Todd’s colleagues, celebrating a life of service, leadership, and dedication to public safety and community.

The public may view the live broadcast on Channel 55 for Hawai‘i Island cable subscribers, via live stream at naleo.tv, or YouTube at youtube.com/@naleotvhawaii.
