Mr. Filbert Carvalho

For all of those who knew our friend on Maui, Mr. Filbert Carvalho:



I regret to inform you that Fil was riding his Harley on Maui Friday evening with his wife, when he was rear ended by a minivan. The impact threw them off the bike. Fil has died and his wife is hospitalized in Critical condition.



Fil was working for TSA on Maui. He was US Amy Special Forces, Maui police and US Federal Air Marshall. Whenever EOD need assistance or support on Maui Mr. Carvalho would coordinate and support. He will be missed by the EOD and military communities.



Fil will be missed greatly. There is no word on Funeral at this time.

RIP, Fil.

He died doing something he loved.
