Police arrested the bus driver and released him. The bus driver faces negligent homicide charges.

"I think Corey was a good man with a good heart, very dependable and trustworthy and many fine qualities that will be missed," OCC General Manager Loren Pippin said.

His co-workers were shocked to learn the man killed in the tour bus collision was there friend.

"He was kind hearted gentle person and was always there for us and would go above and beyond what he needed to do," OCC co-worker Terry Travens said.

"He was on his way to the Embassy Suites to take over as assistant manager in the new hotel being built there in Waikiki," Pippin said.
