I remember Hiroko working at my grandmother Kim's beauty shop on B street when I was growing up. She was always so nice and kind to me. I know my grandmother and she stayed in touch until they both retired. I am so sorry for the loss of Hiroko and George.

George was a great friend as I knew George for over 30 years. Soft spoken and a true gentleman. Hiroko was always kind to me whenever I would drop by their home. As George said to me when he let me know Hiroko passed away "I had the better end of the deal (Marriage) these past 60+ years. She was a great wife." Will miss our coffee time George and talking about weightlifting and your experience during the Korean War and your career in the bakery business.
