C6 OBITUARIES HONOLULU STAR-BULLETIN SATURDAY, DECEMBER 1 3, 2003 obituaries EUGENE BARRETT 1931-2003 Honolulu women over 36-year period After the 1995 slaying, Barrett was sent to a prison in Oklahoma. He returned to Hawaii this year, where he served some time at Halawa Correctional Facility until falling ill and being taken to Pali Moml. Bert Pahia did not talk to his father after his mother's murder and allowed him to have no contact with his grandchildren. "I sent pictures," said Teia Pahia. "He knew that he would never know his son or his grandsons because that was his son's wishes.

Seeing the picture made his life a hell." A memorial for Barrett will be held Monday afternoon at Borthwick Mortuary. Besides Bert Pahia, Barrett is survived by mother Emily, brothers Arthur A. and Howard, and five grandchildren. "We're just trying to put this behind us," said Teia Pahia, Barrett's daughter-in-law. Her husband, Bert Pahia, was the son of Roberta and Eugene Barrett.

Teia Pahia said she had spoken to her father-in-law over the telephone and written to him several times in her quest to map out her husband's family genealogy. "Despite his crimes, he sounded like a really normal man," she said. Bert Pahia, she said, "really hates him because his whole life was changed over the experience." "Knowing his crimes, it's very hard," she said. But, she added, "I have respect for the man because, if not for him, I wouldn't have my husband and my children."
