Her home for many years was a repository of Berger music and memorabilia, some of which will be on display at the Berger plot at the Kawaiaha‘o Church cemetery at services Sunday.
Berger in 1874 wrote the music to Hawai‘i Pono‘i, which became the national anthem of the Hawaiian Kingdom and now is the state song. He was an inspiration to Hawaiian songwriters and became a fixture of Boat Days.

She married Donald Billam-Walker in 1937, and the couple had three children.
Mourners may view the bandmaster’s baton, medals bestowed by Queen Kapi‘olani and Queen Lili‘uokalani, and a golden lyre presented by bandsmen during the Hawaiian Republic.
The Royal Hawaiian Band will be in attendance. Lehua Billam-Walker was a founder of the Friends of the Royal Hawaiian Band.
