Those old photos of Uncle Kaz bring back a lot of memories of when we all lived at 3818 Washington Blvd in Chicago. We respected Uncle Kaz very much and wish the best for Aunt Helen, Betsy and Elli. Sincerely, Rick and Mary Nagai and Family

I derive my social justice worldview from my grandpa (and grandma) based on their experience of unjust internment during WWII. Their response, one of dignity and respect, left a lasting impression on me and has deeply impacted my personal and professional path. My commitment to be a voice of equity and justice is inspired by my grandpa. One of many quiet lessons I learned from him. Although I will miss him very much, I carry his inspiration with me as I continue in my own professional path.

I didn't have the pleasure of getting to know Kazuma, but from the pictures it would be nice if everyone had as happy and fulfilled a life as he did with Helen and the rest of his family. All the best to you family members who enjoyed him for many years, especially Helen. Bob Reynolds

I am sitting here wanting memories to teach me, to see the beauty in the world through my own eyes. - Lyrics from "Wanting Memories"

He was a kind, practical, no-nonsense man.

Kaz was a wonderful, kind man. - Helen
