Sakae Mishima
July 6, 1910 - August 4, 2008.
He died peacefully in his sleep, from old age.

He can finally see Grandma again.

I just got back to Osaka tonight, will head back out to Tokyo this weekend for the funeral.

It's always hard to lose someone you love. Let your memories comfort you. I'll be thinking of you this weekend.

Thank you. To be honest, it still hasn't sunk in, especially because he looked like he was just taking a nap and could wake up any minute.
