Mitsuko and Kathleen:  We are sorry to hear about the passing of Yosh.  My parents are late Ichi and Yae Nisogi.  My parents would always tell us when you folks would come to Utah and visit when they had the Golden Spike Cafe.  They sure welcomed the visit.  Our Deepest Condolences to your family.

Gerald and Teri Nisogi

We'll all miss Uncle Yosh.  He was an inspiration to us all.  He made you feel welcome whenever you saw him.  Uncle Yosh seemed to always have some sort of project going.  I remember when I was a teenager he made a record player that we used at our church gatherings and dances, he was so skillful.  We all have fond memories of him.  Aunt Mitsuko and Kathleen our deepest sympathy.

It is a wonderful picture of Uncle Yosh.  We will all remember his smile, laugh and generosity.
He will be missed.
Dana, Cheryl Morvillo and family.

Mitsuko-san, my sincere apologies for addressing you incorrectly - my blunder is most embarrassing.  Again, sincere sympathy.

I considered Yosh a good friend and an excellent co-worker.  He helped me understand how ANA operated on my 1st trip to Japan.  He opened his home to my wife and me in Japan, New Zealand, Australia and Hawaii.  When Sherry and I visited Hawaii he said "I have seen it all many times; here are the keys to my truck.  Call if you will be home for dinner." On a golf game hosted by GE at Ansett A/L Yosh sprained his ankle going up a wet slope; we convinced him to go back to the bar where a luncheon was set-up for the 19th hole.  Needlesss to say, Yosh was a happy camper when we got there.  Sherry and I will miss Yosh and and our sympathy and love to Mitzi and Kathleen.

What a great picture of Uncle Yosh - always smiling, and great to talk to.  We will miss him dearly.  Aunt Mitsuko and Kathleen, we are thinking of you.

Yosh was a special person to all who met him.  When Yosh was able to attend the family reunions, he would always make time to visit with you and catch up with your family news.  We will miss him dearly.   Our Deepest Condolences

Uncle Yosh was not only big in stature but also big in personality.  He would light up the room with his stories, laughter and smile.  He was one of those people you just wanted to be around.  We will miss him.

I recall Yosh looking after me as a younger sibling during my grade school years.  We had many wonderful years growing up together in Corinne. 

Yoshiko-san and Kathleen, please accept our sincere sympathy.

We remember his wide smile.  We remember is warm laugh.  We remember his many kindnesses.  Praise God for his life.
