Daughter of entertainer Don Ho found dead, weeks after father passed away

HONOLULU (AP) - Dayna Ho-Henry, daughter of the late entertainer Don Ho, has died, a family member said. The 51-year-old's death comes less than a week after the May 5 beach funeral in Waikiki for her father, who died April 14 of heart failure at age 76.

Ho-Henry's body was discovered Friday at a home on Oahu's North Shore. No other details were immediately available.

She was the third of 10 children of the legendary Hawaii entertainer known for his catchy signature tune "Tiny Bubbles."

"The family is grieving the loss of my sister and we're just trying to make sense of it," Ho-Henry's brother, Dwight Ho, told The Associated Press.

Honolulu police spokeswoman Michelle Yu said no foul play is suspected.

The family Friday was gathering to mourn Ho-Henry's death, much like they did just a few weeks ago for Ho.
