RIP Mitsu Suzuki

Mitsu Suzuki, widow of Shunryu Suzuki died on the evening of January 9th at a hospital in Shizuoka Japan. She was 101. This is the edited message received from her grandson Shungo: "Mitsu Suzuki passed away peacefully two hours ago cause of senility." That would put the time in Japan at about 9pm. (9:30pm confirmed - 4:30am California time 1/09)]. Farewell Okusan, my Japanese mother. - dc-----------Mitsu Suzuki cuke page
