They moved to Royal Oak, Michigan, and she graduated from Dondero High School, Class of 1970. She moved to Hawaii in the early seventies and never looked back. She became a true kamaaina \"chop sticks, lau lau and spam musubi\". She loved listing Hawaii as her home state. She traveled extensively between Hawaii and Michigan. She was the longtime Kauai sales rep for Alert Alarm and had many very good friends on the Garden Isle. She will always be remembered as the haole lady with the Japanese last name. She loved sports, especially high school football. She will forever be a St. Louis High School football supporter.
