I knew her as Mrs. Goto. A lady so impressive, Steve & Marty were so fortunate to be blessed with her. I've been telling my story of a wonderfully spirited lady from Sapporo. Japan who taught me how to cook Japanese fried rice Sapporo style. I'll still be thinking of Kayoko.

Marty, Steve (Pam) and Mr. Goto, I'm so sorry to hear that Mrs. Goto has passed away. She was a beautiful, kind, and caring lady. I remember her fabulous cooking and the sound of her voice calling Marty in for dinner. She was such a nice person and always made me feel comfortable at the house. My thoughts and prayers are with you.
