My father came to Vancouver. Canada in 1896. Two years later, he entered the USA. Mother immigrated into the U.S. in September, 1913. Neither spoke English when they came from Japan. They settled in Pasadena, California and worked very hard. They had four children. They encouraged their children to get as much schooling as possible. I was the 2nd oldest. I learned English starting in kindergarten. I promised to concentrate on English. Sports were learned in school. Football was my favorite. Schoolwork was easy. My education was interrupted by racial prejudice and by WW-II. I graduated engineering college in January 1948. After college, I worked in U.S. industry and into management. I received a professional engineering license from the State of Ohio, after some exams. I was married to a Caucasian woman for 50 years until her death. She was a loving, loyal. friendly and unselfish wife. We raised two successful adults. I wrote this book in her memory. It was a work of love. I shall never forget her.
