Reginald Toru Okamura "was the glue that kept" the HawaiianVolcano Observatory's family together, says Jack Lockwood, president of Geohazards Consultants International Inc. Okamura, a retired assistant scientist-in-charge for the Hawaiian Volcano  Observatory, died Saturday Jan. 16, 1999 at Hilo Hospital. He was 62.  Okamura was vice president for Geohazards Consultants. Okamura joined the observatory staff as a chemist in 1958 and remained until  his retirement 32 years later. He rose to the No. 2 post where his long-term presence provided continuity for  an agency where the scientist-in-charge rotates every five years. "He always kept a couch in his office," Lockwood said. Anyone with a problem, about a co-worker, a supervisor, a sick dog, could sit and talk with Okamura. "Reggie was a guy you could trust. He was the head of the family in a  respected way," Lockwood said. "Reggie was the ultimate fixer. He knew who to contact to smooth things in a very Hawaiian way."  Okamura was an active campaigner for Sen. Daniel Inouye, who asked him to serve on the Saddle Road Task Force. He used his many contacts in the community to see that the project went smoothly, said Mel Hewitt, co-chairman of the task force with Okamura. Okamura was born at Hilea Camp in Kau, sugar workers' housing that no  longer exists, Lockwood said.  In a 1987 interview with the Star-Bulletin, Okamura said he studied insects in  college, intending to use the knowledge in agriculture because he wanted to remain in Hawaii.  Instead, he used his college chemistry studies to get a job at the observatory in  time for the most memorable event of his career, the 1,900-foot-high  fountaining of Kilauea Iki in 1959.  In his younger days he liked to spear-fish, said Dwight Hamilton, a former chief naturalist at Hawaii Volcanoes National Park who knew Okamura since 1961.  Okamura also developed a passion for golf, belonging to four golf clubs. Just recently, Hamilton proposed a party for "Reggie and the guys."  "That's the way we always thought of it, as 'Reggie and the guys,'" Hamilton  said. The party was set for last Friday. On Wednesday, Okamura suffered a heart  attack and remained in a coma. Hamilton and friends put on the party anyway, holding a moment of silence  during it. Okamura died the next day. Okamura is survived by wife Jane; son Dean; daughter Lori Okamura;  brothers Ronald and Arnold; two sisters Francine Bidal and Gail Okamura; and  a granddaughter. Services over the ashes will be at 5 p.m. Thursday at Hilo Meishoin Mission. Call after 3 p.m.
