SHOWING SOME HEART
Stars gather to raise money for a Maui girl

GARY T. KUBOTA / GKUBOTA@STARBULLETIN.COM Kris Kristofferson and Willie Nelson were among the entertainers volunteering their talent Saturday night at a benefit concert on Maui for heart transplant patient Daphne Kawaiaea, 11. The rock group Styx also sang several songs. More than 2,500 people were undaunted by the rain and mud at Oskie Rice Arena, where a rodeo was held, followed by the concert under a big tent. Daphne, who is staying near the Stanford Medical Center in California, called by telephone to thank everyone and to say she missed Hawaii. To make a contribution, call Roxanne Prito on Maui at 808-575-2836.
