Hawaii officials are urging relatives of those missing to give DNA samples as more than 1,000 names remain on an unconfirmed list of people unaccounted for.

Labor Day is one of the worst days to travel. Here are some travel tips ahead of the busy holiday

There have been 115 confirmed dead, according to Maui police. All single-story, residential properties in the disaster area had been searched, and teams were transitioning to searching multi-story residential and commercial properties, Maui County officials said in an update late Monday. Pelletier urged people to provide DNA and file a police report with as much information as possible if they have relatives unaccounted for.

“I was shocked. Why is the FBI calling me?” the 77-year-old retiree said. “But then he came out with it right away, and then I kind of calmed down.” "I just want confirmation,” he said last week. “Not knowing what happened, not knowing if she escaped, not knowing if she’s not there. That’s the hard thing.”Abihai's grandmother lived at Hale Mahaolu Eono, a senior living facility where another member of his extended family, Virginia Dofa, lived. Authorities have identified Dofa as one who perished. Abihai described Dofa and Louise Abihai as best friends.

People who lived through other tragedies and never learned of their loved ones' fate are also following the news and hurting for the victims and their families. Nearly 22 years later, for example, almost 1,100 victims of the 9/11 terror attacks, which killed nearly 3,000, have no identified remains.
