Funeral of Dr. Haruko Kataoka
Matsumoto, Japan

I miss our great teacher, and I think about her every day. I received a card from a friend when Sensei passed away, and the words are so pertinent -
"Some lives are like a song - every note rare and precious. We feel lucky to have heard the music." All of us will keep her song alive.
