Not sure what to say?

A great and strong testimony now heard beyond the earth's veil. She and her husband were positive models of leadership on my mission to Japan.

I met a wonderful unforgettable woman named Junko Shimizu in about 1980 in Madison, Wisconsin where she studied English Linguistics. I met her when I rented her a room at the University YMCA. She later moved back to Japan and lived in Koganei- shi, Tokyo until she moved to another Japanese city. Is this the same Junko? I lost touch with her after she moved. She was the sweetest of people... Sincerely,

im her granddaughter and she was really the best i remember she had these really beautiful dolls from japan and they had to be in a humid state, and when i was younger (5-6) i would "water" them with her

Dear Tom and Family, I was so sorry to hear of your loss. Junko was a very special person. I loved her very much. She will be missed tremendously by many.

Dear Tom, I was deeply saddened to hear of Junko´s passing. I am sure that it is a heavy heart that fills your soul. She was such a beautiful woman with a heart of gold. I pray that you will be filled with the peace that comes only from our Savior. My prayers will be with you. Love, Kathleen Pinnock

I loved Grace (Junko). She was one my earliest memories of Brentwood Ward. I used to love to sit by her in church. I am sure she died every time I did, because I was a real talker. Then we would chat after church. She was short and so was I and so I double loved her. It was wonderful to reconnect 12 or 14 years ago at a Brentwood/Santa Monica 3rd reunion at my dad's house (Lance Turner). I loved our spirited phone visits as we solved the problems of America and liberalism. Bill McKay...
