Remembrance - by Michael Ishii

He was a true sage among men. What was always so unique about him was the gentle and deep human intelligence that he always quietly conveyed as a light forward for us all. He never sought the spotlight but rather put his own spirit and heart towards the places where his light was needed most- like caring for orphaned children who were the most alone in the WWII camps. I understand why they wept decades later when they were reunited with him. He offered love in the darkest of places to those most vulnerable. Bodhisattva/Guardian Angel. He was not a man of pretense or ego, but he was deeply special and we were blessed to be here during his time.
Thank you, Sir. Know now if you didn't realize it before the magnitude of your life and the difference you made. We will never forget.
Well done. Your life was a work of the most humane and human art.
Rest in Peace.
