Co-authors Ken Mochizuki and Ron Chew with co-founders Tomio Moriguchi and Tosh Okamoto signed copies of “Years of Caring, The Story of Nikkei Concerns” for the premier of Nikkei Concern’s first publication.

The event was hosted by Kinokuniya and held inside the Seattle Uwajimaya store.

The book explains the need to take care of the elders and details how the Japanese community established a nonprofit skilled-nursing and assisted living facility for the Issei generation.

The book can currently be purchased at Kinokuniya. ♦
