Mrs Ishikawa, the wife of the Consul General, passed away suddenly on Saturday March 16. No doubt like myself, you are all devastated by this news, all of us who have had the privilege to have met Mrs Ishikawa at any of the many functions she attended in support of our Society will remember her as a lady who was genuinely interested in everyone she met and it is no exaggeration to say she would light up any room she entered.
It is not often we have the privilege of being able to meet such a wonderful couple as the Consul General and Mrs Ishikawa. Needless to say the Australia Japan Society will offer any support we possibly can.
Please remember Mrs Ishikawa as well as Mr Ishikawa and his family in your thoughts and prayers
