I was thinking... remembering Masao this week. I´m sad about the loss of such a talented and beautiful person. It taught me never to take for granted the connections of our lives...I´ll never forget his smile

He was/is a star in so many ways... that gentle voice, that smile, the singing and his intelligence! I´m glad I have the memory of our visit by the art. And, the serenades at work were wonderful.
May the Lord give peace and comfort to his family
