I’m very sorry to hear about the passing of Mrs. Sakamoto. She was my 5th grade teacher back in the 60’s. We reconnected when she started volunteering at the COM information desk. She recognized me immediately and called me by name. Sharp memory and such a sweet and cheerful personality.
Matsue Tsuya has asked me to share her sympathy and condolences on her behalf because she does not email (too old to know how). She wanted you to know that she is thinking of you and wants you to know that she would have responded earlier, but did not know about your mom's passing until recently.
Again our sincere condolences,
Judy Sakamoto on behalf of Aunty Matsue Tsuya
Brian, I just heard about your mom's passing and wanted to express my condolences.
Regretfully, now that I live on Oahu, it took me awhile to learn of her passing. I will miss her. Hope you and the family are well.
Again my condolences.
Judy Sakamoto
My condolences on the passing of Mrs. Sakamoto. I was in Mrs. Sakamoto's 5th grade class at Wailuku El. back in 1976 or '77. She was a good teacher and a kind woman, and she left a lasting impact on my life. My thoughts are with you.
Mildred Sakamoto was born in Wailuku, Maui and has a sister
Lillian. She married and has a son named Brian who lives on Kauai. Mildred worked for many years as a teacher and has influenced many of her then young students to become great leaders and influencers around the state and mainland today. When you think of Roselani Place, Mildred’s face comes to mind as she was the ambassador for our Community and where she called Roselani Place home for almost 14 years. Mildred was very social as she loved to welcome new residents and staff with her beautiful and warm smile. She was petite but her personality, love and aloha that she shared with others was generous and contagious. Her sweet spirit and the memories we have of Mildred will remain in our hearts forever and she will be truly missed. Aloha ‘Oe Mildred!
Mildred was our neighbor. Such a gentle, soft spoken lady. When l went with our ukulele group to Roselani she would join us to listen. She always greeted me and was happy to see me. She was a beautiful spirit and will be missed.
