Many years ago I worked with Sakae at Henderson’s Drycleaners. I was a young college student at the time. Sakae took me under her wing and gave advice that I still use today. She was kind, smart and a very strong little lady. Please let your tears today fall on wonderful memories of a wonderful lady.
Our deepest sympathy of the loss of your mother. Please call me when you get a chance Jim. I tried to contact you in March when my sister died.
