He came from a large extended family, one of 25 cousins, and was the “baby” among 18 cousins on his mom’s side.

Rob is survived by his fiancé Laura Correa; his mother and father, Bertha and Stanley Ching of Wailuku; his sister Michelle DeMello and her partner Michael Neely of Australia; step-brother Kimo Ching; and a loving army of family and friends.
