I will type word by word the message i have received from Mr. John Junichi Mikami, our formal Math Teacher.
It is with great sorrow that I'm informing you of the passing away of Mr.Yoshihiro Nakajima, your former teacher of Japanese at St. Joe. He passed away on Janunary 1st at Bangkok from a massive heart attack, and a memorial service was held there with his family and friends who were there at the time. I just found out now.
Let me know if you want to write a message to his best friend, Mr. David Priest. I'll forward it to him.
I'm shocked myself - please pass the word around to your classmates - I think I am writing to one person from all the classes of which I know someone's email address.
