Not sure what to say?

I'm sorry that this is so late as I only learned that Prof Bosson had died recently. He was my advisor when I was a Japanese major at Cal. I was in total awe of him he knew the Dalai Lama!

IT HAS BEN ONE YEAR SINCE YOU HAVE SEEN MY FATHER'S FACE. I MISS HIM DEARLY!I AM CRYING NOW. I MISS MY DADDY

MY DADDY PASSED AWAY ONE YEAR AGO. I MISS DADDY SO MUCH.

Jim Bosson was our neighbor for many years. I was sad to hear about the passing of this brilliant and likable man. When I was growing up, we'd hang out with his kids Monica and Nick. They were some of the nicer kids in the neighborhood - Jenni too. His wife Ann-Britt is such a friendly and wonderful person. I hope that the family is doing OK. My thoughts are with them all.
