Steve Burns Posted February 21, 2015 Posted February 21, 2015 Had the pleasure of meetiing him a couple of times in the states and the best remembered time was when he was signing a Z Club magazine for me and he was sitting next to Yoshihiko Matsuo and straight away he opened the magazine went straight to the index page and looked at Matsuo san and smiled and pointed to his listing there of his name next to the Z Club President which showed to me that must have read the club magazines we used to send him for him to remember that his name was listed there Will be missed by many 1 Quote
Ekona Posted February 21, 2015 Author Posted February 21, 2015 (edited) Shouldn't that be Katayama-san Will? Edited February 21, 2015 by Ekona 1 Quote
WhackyWill Posted February 21, 2015 Posted February 21, 2015 Shouldn't that be Katayama-san Will? No I checked it with the Missue first, its OK and more of a tribute to put Mr before it, you can use either the persons first name or surname. Quote
