Written for his Uncle Francis aka Uncle Itsuo, by Makoto:
Beyond the Stars
Travel past the shining stars
To a world that isn't ours...
A world where things don't die
A world where imaginations fly...
Here can be a happy place
Out in endless dreamy space...
I'll be there, and there I'll sit
Basking in Utopia
Enjoying the place
Beyond the Stars

We are very sorry to hear about Itsuo-chan.
We remember dinner with Linda and Itsuo-chan in Tokyo.
He was always gentle and a very good person.
We pray that his soul may rest in peace.

Your work is ingenious.
Your work is a treasure of my family.

My sincere condolences. I only met Francis a few times but even so, it was obvious that he was a great guy. Plus he could draw Iron Man like no other! Rest in peace, Francis.
