It has been 1 year since you left us here on earth. your smile, the joy you gave us, your kindness and gentle spirit will be forever missed. I was fortunate to share my life with you and I treasure the moments and memories that are only mine. I thank the Dear Lord every night for blessing me with your love and making us family. I hope every day to make you proud, for you will always be my eternal inspiration. I will love and honor you forever and you will never be forgotten.I will always remember your Japanese traditions which meant so very much to you, and carry out those celebrations as if you were still with me. The love and care you gave to all your patients for so many years has been an inspiration to all who knew you. What a wonderful doctor you were. You touched so many lives and there is so much admiration that continues today just for you. How proud we are of the legacy you left us. To remember him on the anniversary of his death Friday, January 27 we invite all that knew Dr. Ozaki to have a special thought or say a prayer in his memory. We the office staff will launch white balloons (his favorite color) to the heavens in honor of him. We know he will be watching. He's gone on ahead of us, to a better place, but we know he'll watch over us and will continue to touch us thoughout our lives. So today we won't say "good-bye", but that we love you Doctor O, and you will always be our "Hero" until we neet again. All our love, Donna & Your Downey Family
