Reflections of 35 years 

In our 35th year of providing services to our seniors, very few 

would think that Nikkei Concerns (NC) has a very strong Los 

Angeles connection. One Nikkei gentleman that graciously 

offered to lend his expertise to our founding community leaders 

helped create what NC is today. 

35th 

Anniversary 

Edwin Hiroto, former Chief Executive Officer of Los Angeles 

Keiro, saw a legacy in the making, the first Seattle Keiro, in a 

run-down convalescent center for sale in the Mt. Baker area. He 

advised both Tosh Okamoto 

and Tomio Moriguchi as well 

I n s i d e T h i s I s s u e as other community leaders

Nikkei Concerns — a proud community accomplishment. 

Nikkei Horizon’s celebrates 20th year 

As Nikkei Concerns commemorates its 35th year serving our community, one of our 

programs, Nikkei Horizons (NH), also celebrates its anniversary. 

NH launched in September 1990 to offer social opportunities that promote wellness, 

creative expression and exploration through a variety of classes and activities. We 

started with six instructors and a limited number of classes and workshops. Programs 

and instructors were added as the demand grew. Today, more than 270 instructors 

have shared their insights and knowledge with almost 2,000 students/participants. 

Celebrating its 20th year, NH plans to expand the current offerings to include 

people of all ages who are interested in Nikkei culture or language. This summer, 

we encourage families to share the joy of cooking in Setsuko Agata’s new class, 

Anpan Baking with Setsuko and learn how to wear a yukata for bon odori. 

As we continue to develop our programs, travel will be a key area of growth. 

NH Adventures has already clocked over 500 tours. So far, NH explorers have 

toured the region and the globe on nine international, 30 national, and over 450 

day tours in Washington state. We welcome your thoughts on new adventures, so 

please complete the survey in the Nikkei Horizons Schedule. It is also available on 

the Nikkei Horizons page of our website, www.nikkeiconcerns.org.

OUR MISSION 

To enrich and support the lives of 

elders and meet their needs in a 

way that honors and respects 

Nikkei culture and values. 

Dear Friends, 

It is hard to believe that three months has already gone by since the Board hired Jeffrey Hattori as the new Chief 

Executive Officer of Nikkei Concerns (NC). He has truly hit the ground running, working to change the culture and 

focus of our organization during his first critical inaugural months. 

Fortunately for us, he brings with him established ties and relationships within our community and a familiarity of 

our organization as a former Seattle Keiro Administrator. He is also embracing our new Policy Governance model, 

permeating it throughout the internal structure of NC to align staff to Board goals and operational expectations. 

Fortunately for him, he inherits an organization in a good financial position with knowledgeable and competent staff. 

This makes for a great launch point for the future. 

I believe that this combination of new governance, new CEO and new staff focus is inspiring as we celebrate our 

35th anniversary year. 

Sincerely, 

Dear Friends, 

David Hayasaka 

President 

“Okaerinasai!” This was the wonderful and warm reception I received from Yone Terada, Lead Receptionist, as I 

entered the front door of Nikkei Concerns upon my arrival as your CEO. In many respects, I feel as though I was on 

an extended vacation and have returned home to my “family”… where I belong… a little wiser, more experienced, 

with a greater passion to fulfill the mission of Nikkei Concerns. 

My life has been intricately tied with Nikkei Concerns, spanning over 33 years, starting as a 13-year-old volunteer to 

prepare the original Keiro, weekend janitor and dishwasher, board member, family member of a resident (my mother), 

co-founder of a sansei/yonsei fundraising group, Mi-Yo-I Kai, and as administrator of Seattle Keiro. The very essence 

of Nikkei Concerns is in my DNA. 

I have a vision of a premier Nikkei Concerns organization for today… and tomorrow. My primary focus is to enhance 

our current core programs and services. We must ensure “we make each day the best day” for our residents and 

participants, family members, staff, volunteers and supporters. However, I am also preparing to meet and work with 

all of you and the Board to create a plan, infrastructure and brand to meet the needs and wants of our rapidly evolving 

community. 

As we celebrate our 35th anniversary and prepare to launch the next 35 years, some things will never change… 

the respect of and commitment to the values, caring spirit and community that created Nikkei Concerns. Tadaima! 

Sincerely, 

Jeffrey Hattori 

Chief Executive Officer

Residents share Apolo’s victory 

Nikkei Manor residents experience the tension 

and thrill of Apolo’s races. 

Both Seattle Keiro and Nikkei Manor 

resonated with excitement and cheers 

as residents watched Apolo Ohno, 

their favorite young athlete, become 

the most decorated U.S. Olympian in 

history with seven medals in 

short track. 

Because his Olympic races aired 

late in the evening, staff recorded all 

of Ohno’s competitions and hosted 

encore presentation parties for all 

the residents and their families to 

watch. Some residents watched his races over and over and rooted for their hometown hero 

each time he crossed the finish line. Furthering the Ohno spirit, the Nikkei Manor residents 

were decked out with Apolo-style bandana headgear and goatees (soul patches) while they 

watched him triumph. 

Seattle native Apolo Anton Ohno is dear to Nikkei Concerns. Over the years, he has spent 

time with our residents, brought his energy and enthusiasm as our guest of honor at events and 

donated generously. As an extended member of our family and community, he inspires and 

delights residents, families, volunteers, and staff alike with his dedication and irresistible smile.

Pat Ikegami — A dedicated volunteer 

When asked why she donated 

so much of her personal time and 

money on this project, this dedicated 

volunteer replies, “It is all about the 

residents.” She credits the staff and 

vendors, but it is her drive and vision 

that have given the residents’ home a 

new ambience. 

“New curtains 

have given the residents’ home 

a new ambience.” 

Pat Ikegami’s vision has given our 

Seattle Keiro (SK) residents a new 

décor. Out went the white privacy 

curtains and old bedspreads and 

in came stylish and contemporary 

patterns and colors. According to 

Ibtissam Davis, Support Services 

Manager, Ikegami helped coordinate 

the fabric designs for the residents’ 

rooms. She spent a lot of time with 

the interior designer to choose colors 

and textures that create a friendly and 

welcome atmosphere. 

“We are very fortunate to have such 

caring and committed volunteers that 

truly serve our mission. Pat has given 

the rooms a facelift with warmer 

colors and a home-like feeling. Her 

work is recognized not only by the 

staff, but the residents and their 

families. We have received wonderful 

comments from our residents’ 

families,” says Jeffrey Hattori, CEO. 

Davis adds that Ikegami has also 

donated a lot of her time to renovate 

the lobby. She wanted the lobby to 

have a modern Japanese-influenced 

look for everyone walking through the 

SK doors. Everything works together 

harmoniously and helps bring serenity 

and a pleasing Japanese sensibility to 

the space. 

Domo arigato gozaimashita, Pat. 

Celebrating our volunteers 

Whether they have been with Nikkei 

Concerns (NC) for 20 days or over 

20 years, more than 80 volunteers 

gathered at Seattle Keiro and 

Nikkei Manor to celebrate National 

Volunteer Appreciation Week (April 

18-24). 

We honored some of our loyal 

volunteers (5, 10, 15, 20, and 

25+ years) with service award pins 

and thanked all for giving so much 

to our residents and participants. 

When asked why the volunteers are 

so dedicated, Kokoro Kai Volunteer 

Mitsuyo Oki summed it up, saying, 

“It’s a family. It’s like we just got back 

together again.” 

In 2009, almost 1500 individuals 

gave their time, energy, and devotion 

to our residents and participants of 

NC. What do the volunteers do 

Volunteers celebrate at Nikkei Manor. 

They enjoy interacting with our 

residents and other participants. 

Some like to entertain with songs, 

dance, and dramatic productions or 

be involved with creating artwork. 

Our volunteers make everyday tasks 

fun such as driving the bus for outings, 

helping clean up, tending the garden, 

or hemming pants for our residents. 

Sachiko Sugimoto receives service pin 

from Jeffrey Hattori. 

Arigato gozaimashita to all of our 

volunteers! You enrich the lives of the 

residents and participants and are 

indispensible and valued members of 

our NC family. 

We welcome volunteers from a variety 

of backgrounds. If you have time to 

give and would like more information, 

please contact Megumi Sherrill, 

Volunteer Coordinator, at 206.726.7830 

or msherrill@nikkeiconcerns.org.

Nikkei Horizons Knitting Duo 

Nikkei Horizons’ (NH) volunteer instructors are the heart 

of the program. Many have shared their knowledge and 

experience for decades.. They have helped hundreds of 

people to learn new skills, enjoy new experiences 

and form new companionships. In return, the NH 

participants have undoubtedly taught their instructors 

a thing or two. As we look forward to NH’s upcoming 

20th anniversary, we will introduce you to some of 

these dedicated volunteers and their equally dedicated 

students who make NH so much more rewarding than 

other continuing education programs. 

Can you imagine a legacy knit together over four 

generations, lessons passed from mother to daughter, 

teacher to student, now generously shared with all who 

have a passion for knitting It might be hard to believe, 

but this mother and daughter team is also sharing their 

expertise at Nikkei Manor every Tuesday in the NH 

Program. 

Sallie Yamada retired in the 1960s but that didn’t slow 

her down. She kept active as a Kokoro Kai volunteer. 

When NH emerged 20 years ago, Yamada was asked if 

she would like to teach knitting, and lucky for us, she said 

yes. A hard-core dedicated volunteer, she now shares the 

class with her co-teacher and daughter Marcia Almassy. 

Almassy joined her mother’s knitting circle as a participant 

four years ago. “It feels more like a social circle of friends 

than a class as 

these students meet 

every Tuesday 

afternoon to knit, 

chat and snack 

on treats,” says 

Almassy. She adds, 

“It is amazing that 

Mom can create 

incredible designs 

Knitting Instructors - Marcia 

Almassy and Sallie Yamada. 

without reading patterns. She has the creativity and 

continues to share her expertise with this class.” 

Yamada, age 98, has too many favorite moments to 

recall, but she enjoys volunteering her time and teaching 

her students how to knit. She remembers when a few 

Seattle Keiro staff arrived unannounced halfway through 

the quarter for just one lesson to brush up on their skills. 

A rare mother and daughter treasure of the NH program, 

Yamada and Almassy both enjoy the interaction with 

students and have no plans on stopping. “As long as there 

are participants, we will be teaching,” says Yamada. 

If you are interested in knitting or crocheting with 

Sallie and Marcia, this class is held Tuesdays at Nikkei 

Manor from 1-3 p.m. Registration is required with NH. 

For more information, call NH Manager, Rie Taki at 

206.726.6469 or email NHinfo@nikkeiconcerns.org. 

Celebrating 35 years continued from page 1 

come up for sale often and building a new one would be 

difficult considering our limited experience and resources. 

With the backing of and a little sweat equity from the 

community, this facility could become a place to care for 

our Issei. 

Hiroto graciously gave us permission to use the name 

“Keiro” as part of our nursing home name. To bear no 

confusion with LA Keiro Services, we officially became 

Seattle Keiro. 

He continued to offer guidance as we launched our huge 

$500,000 capital fundraiser. Hiroto, fresh from managing 

a successful capital campaign in Los Angeles, sent 

Okamoto’s daughter, Joyce, who was an administrative 

assistant for the consortium that operated the Los Angeles 

Keiro. She shared her experience and expertise to help us 

set up an action plan. 

This Los Angeles visionary recognized key elements that 

helped us to achieve our dreams. Although Hiroto cannot 

join our celebration, as he passed away December 25, 

2008 in the San Juan Islands, he will be remembered for 

his contributions and has our eternal gratitude. 

Edwin Hiroto will always have an important place in our 

history, which we are recording in a 35th anniversary 

commemorative book. Our community has worked very 

hard to make NC what it is today. This book reflects on 

these efforts — how we started, where we are today and 

what our future holds. 

In the next edition of the Tayori, we will feature another 

excerpt from the first NC history book. Stay tuned.
