I did not know Mr. Iwako, or Keiko very well. I know his children better, and especially Yurie.
I can tell he raised his kids well, because they are good kids. The family will endure because he will always look over you and guide you when you are weak, or scared, or lost. You will all find strength in his strength, and always cherish every memory, even the hard ones. Thinking of you all with love.

Dearest Yurie and family...
I am saddened by the loss of your beloved Father. Even though I did not know him, I know you, Yurie, and he loved and raised a most beautiful daughter. Your life forward will always be in his honor. You are a bright spot here on earth that he will always see from the heavens. Love to you and everyone in your life who was touched by your sweet Daddy. Thinking of you...
