Robert Love,
baker and native of Glasgow,
Scotland,
arrived in Honolulu
June 19,1851.
On July 12
the Ministry of the Interior,
Kingdom of Hawaii,
issued Robert
license to operate a bakery.
" The entrepreneurial success
of Love’s Bakery truly
deserves to go to one woman,
Fanny Johnson Love.
After
Robert Sr. passed away,
Robert Jr. and his wife, Fanny, took
over the business. At the age of 48,
Fanny was widowed
with 6 children
and a heavily mortgaged bakery.
For 32 years, Fanny ran
Love’s Bakery enduring fire
[The Great Chinatown Fire, Cloudia]
plague,
annexation [of the Hawaiian Kingdom],
and the
Republic [of Hawaii], with grace, dignity,
and statesmanship. "
Fanny Love appears briefly
in Alan Brennert's amazing
historical novel MOLOKA`I .
“ I've come to believe
that how we choose to live
with pain, or injustice,
or death...
is the true measure
of the Divine within us.”
Alan Brennert
“Surrounded by darkness
yet enfolded in light.”

“No land is more beautiful,
and therefore more powerful.
That is what I believe in, Aouli.
I believe in Hawai'i.
I believe in the land."
