There is a part of Murai-san's message, that may be worth reposting: The family is planning a memorial service at Rinkai Saijo (Tokyo, Japan http://www.rinkaisaijo.or.jp/info/index.html) on November 6th from 6:00pm, and a funeral service the following day on November 7th from 11:00am. We have received warm requests from many wishing if they can be of any help. We are presently coordinating efforts with Itojunâs family to see how we may be of assistance during this difficult time. On behalf of the Internet community we will be arranging for flowers to be sent, but as many of Itojunâs close colleagues may be overseas, we understand it may be difficult to attend or arrange for flowers from abroad. As an alternative suggestion we would like to accept warm messages to the family and/or memorable events with Itojun that you may want to share. We will deliver these messages to Itojun at the memorial and funeral service. Please send these messages to [email protected] -- World Security Pros.
