Pelaki graduated from Tonga College in Tongatapu specializing in carpentry and blue prints. He was a licensed general contractor, and he loved designing and making furniture. He was an excellent artist and a perfectionist at everything he did. He was a man of many talents and while living in Tonga he helped build the family home. When his mother suffered a stroke Pelaki and Debbie lived in Aukland, New Zealand for a year while caring for her. Pelaki was a friend to all, he enjoyed helping others, and he especially loved children. He enjoyed playing with and teaching Marriah, Izzy and Amberia his native language and Tongan dancing. He was very fluent and spoke Samon, Tongan, and English. Pelaki was employed with Pacific Central Steel Fabrication since July of 2007. He was a sand blaster, and worked there until the day of his passing. He loved his job, and really liked his co-workers. He was a dedicated and hard worker, who never missed a day of work, or complained about working in the cold. Pelaki is survived by his loving wife, Debbie, East Carbon; step-children, Leila Michelle Wilson, Hyrum, Johnnie Darty, East Carbon; three brothers and two sisters who are mostly living in New Zealand and California; grandchildren, Marriah Michelle and Izabelle Ann Darty, both of East Carbon; and many nieces, nephews and other family members living in the islands.
