William Paul Jarrett

Biography

William Paul Jarrett represented the people of Hawaii as territorial delegate to the U.S. Congress, carrying their concerns to the national stage and working to secure fair treatment and resources for the islands. He balanced Washington duties with a deep appreciation for the local traditions and laborers whose daily work sustained the territory.

After public service he continued to support civic projects that fostered education and opportunity, and his final resting place at Diamond Head Memorial Park is a place of quiet gratitude for his steady advocacy.
