Alice Kasai

Alice was a dear,dear friend of the United Nations Assoc. of Utah serving as its President for more than one term. Her ideas were wonderful and always true to the UN Charter in which she found inspiration. She hosted the Board for many years, bringing us treats of all kinds. She was our link to the Council General of Japan who helped present programs for Utah at her request. She worked with SLC's Sister City program and kept her friends informed. We at the UNAU will miss her very much.

Unfortunately, I never had a chance to meet Alice, but she sounds like the kind of woman who should be replicated a thousand times and maybe this world would be a better place for all mankind. My sincerest condolences to all the Kasai relatives. Janet Komoto, President, Snake River Chapter, JACL, Ontario, Oregon.

The passing of Alice is a great loss for our Japanese Community in Utah as well as for the entire state. She and her family have been our family friends for many years. I cannot forget her loving concern and care for our mom, Lillian Sekino, who was failing in health during her last few years. She has also been a mentor of mine. She was always there for me with her loving guidance in shaping me and my future. I had challenges in my life but those negative challenges became positive...

Kasai Family Members,
I would like to express my deepest sympathy and my most heart felt thoughts. Your mom was and will always be a remarkable woman.

The cold air was crisp and the sun was shining bright, only partially blocked by the single tree near by as the crowd gathered at the grave site last Tuesday afternoon. The religious pray was almost like a meditative song, repeated over and over in homage. A few tears and facial tissue dabbed at Hersey's eyes (my good friend) as he stood bravely holding his son who moved restlessly in his arm oblivious to the proceedings.

I just heard about the passing of Alice Kasai. Even though I never met this remarkable woman, I know one of her granddaughters, Sheila Ju. I have known Sheila for over 20 years and after reading Alice's obituary. I can see where Sheila gets her drive, spirit, and ethics. There is no doubt that Alice's legacy has been passed down to the many generations of her family and it'll be carried on for many generations to come. You could say that Sheila and Alice had been cut from the same cloth. I...
