For anyone who has lost someone they love.
For his mother — and for you
She lost her boy. She does not want you walking this year alone.
Deezo's World was opened by a mother still grieving Devaughn “Deezo” Wright Pita, who was taken in August 2025. This house exists because that kind of missing does not end — and because other people on this island are missing someone too.
If you have lost a child, a partner, a parent, a brother, a friend — you belong at this table. We are not here to hurry you. We are here so the grief has company.
His story
How we show up
You don't have to carry it alone.
The emotional, practical, and community support people need after a death — and barely receive once the funeral lei is gone. We turn pain into purpose, and into a place to sit.
Sit with the grieving
A mother who lost her son. A family missing a brother. Anyone who woke up in a quieter house. We sit with that — no rush, no fixing, no one telling you to move on.

A room for the ache
Judgment-free tables and Saturdays where you can say their name, cry, or just eat. Grief does not have to happen in the parking lot after the funeral.

Pain into purpose
His mother turned a year of missing him into a table for other people who are missing someone. Plates, resources, and a market that keeps Kalihi connected.
