Tosh touched my heart. Her playful spirit will be missed. Two memories of her stand out in my mind: her snuggled up with our dog Zoe on Zoe's dog bed and
her teaching me how to cut pork tenderloin. My thoughts and prayers go out to
Shinobu, Ann and John on this sad occasion.

Dear Shinobu, John and Ann,
We will miss Toshiko's gentle presence, her ready smile, the description of her cross court forehand as "My shotu", her elegance and grace. She brought a peaceful calm where ever she went to balance the Togasaki frenetic feeling. We'll always remember her gracious and warm manner. Love, Steve & Sally

Hi John and Ann and Mr. Togasaki,
Please accept my deepest condolences for your loss. I remember seeing Mrs. Togasaki at John's tennis matches and I thought how nice it was that tennis was something we could all share together. Please know that my thoughts are with you during this difficult time.

Sincerely,
Carolyn
