Deborah and myself at the Midtown Branch of CB&T in Columbus feel so blessed to have met and gotten to know Ms. Mansapit. You will truly be missed. God bless the whole Mansapit family
I will miss my long time friend. Mrs. Yuriko was my friend for over 25 years. We talked almost everyday. We went to
dinner almost once a week. She spent many Christmas, Thanksgiving and other holidays with me and my family. She was a pleasure to be around. She visited my flower shop often . Every few days she would arrive with cokes, cookies or coffee.
She would sit at the store for hours, often falling asleep in the big office chair , I’d drag it into the workroom for her so she
could watch us work. Often she would grab a broom and want to sweep the floor. She was kind and always wanted to help
She shared her most intimate secrets with me , as I did her.. She was like a mother to me. She always loved my old dog, and
each time we went to eat she would have to go by the store to get a treat for the dog. She brought much joy to our lives. and we will always think of her as family. Peace to all the family. David E. Benefield
Maybe not the appropriate place to write this and therefore my excuses but I don’t know how to reach this family with the following question.
Is it possible that Ramon and Yuriko had an infant son born and buried in Yokohama ? At Yokohama Foreign General Cemetery there is a grave with the inscription “Mansapit (infant)/ Beloved son/ of/ Ramon and Yuriko/ 15 Nov. 1956”.
The similarity of the names do suggest that it is possible but it can also be a coincidence. A picture of the the grave can be provided.
Wish you all the best
