Uncle Takeo used to picked us up in his cool car and took us to family get togethers. He was always joyful and kind whenever I was with him. I remember him fondly and miss him.

Uncle was like a rock to me, strong and sturdy. He didn't have to say much but I felt his strength and gentleness at the same time. We will miss his kind, gentle, and wise presence. But his spirit will always be in our hearts and minds.
With deepest sympathy-
Mike, Lorna, and Rachel
