As a family all we have is each other and if you guys ever need anything…
    Love
    Cousin Brian

    I would like to remember Mom as a very devoted loving wife and mother. She would always stoodup and back Dad on all his ventures. Mom always like making flowers beds and taking care of the house when Dad was away. I remember staying with you guys one summer down in South Carolina and Mom making her great Italian spaghetti and meatballs as well as her great Japanese foods. I will remember her mostly for her smile and always making a fun time our of hard times never complaining. We all will miss you Shizuko and don’t forget to call Mike Dinkeydow when you meet up with him.
    Love Uncle Ron
