North Hawaii Community Hospital and North Hawaii Hospice will each benefit from an estate gift valued at approximately $1.5 million. The bequest was made by long-time Waimea residents Alcy D. Johnson and his wife, Jacque.
Alcy Johnson, or “Shorty,” as he preferred to be called, died unexpectedly on June 12 at the age of 89 in Waimea. Jacque Johnson died in 1993. Their generosity and community support continue with the creation of The Jacqueline and Alcy Johnson Memorial Fund as outlined in Shorty’s will to benefit NHCH and North Hawaii Hospice. The Jacqueline and Alcy Johnson Memorial Fund, held by Hawaii Community Foundation, will distribute proceeds annually to each organization with 60 percent directed to NHCH and 40 percent to North Hawaii Hospice.
