Lea was born in Hawaii and loved the islands, sailing, warm weather, friends, family, travel, dancing, laughing, music and sharing food. Lea and Jerry Black started San Juan Salsa at home on Scottie’s Acre, where it went from a cottage industry of delicious salsa to the shelf of Kings market.

Lea is survived by her husband, Stephen Gould of Hawaii, and her son Eli Black-Mizuta of Seattle.
