Mrs. Wilma Ogata and family, I can almost hear the angels singing as Jesus our Savior and God the Father welcome his son, Dr. Kenji Ogata into Heaven. He was a man with a good heart and a purpose driven life; from his unwavering courage and determination to serve his country as one of the first US Japanese servicemen, to his artistic, conscientious and fair priced, conservative dental practice. His dental work was nearly pain free, looked great and lasts for years and years. I (we) still have not found a dentist that I trust and whose work I completely approve of like Dr. Ogata. His hygienists were always top notch and his beautiful, always welcoming wife at the front desk had/has a smile that warms everyone's day. Sterling was lucky to have him as a top professional, a devoted veteran and citizen, a good friend, and a loving family man. I know he has touched many lives, was well respected, and will be missed by many. May you feel God's peace, comfort, and love in your time of sorrow. We fondly remember and love you both.

Dear Mrs. Ogata and family. I have nothing but respect, and fond memories of Dr. Ogata. I(like hundreds)who grew up in Sterling went to Dr. Ogata throughout my growing up years...I still remember him humming as he worked on my teeth, and getting a toy or toothbrush after my appt. He was a very special man,(I remember my Dad telling me as a youngster that he grew up with Kenje and that Dr. Ogata was a War hero.)RIP to a very good man!

Dear Wilma and Kenjalin, I'm sending condolences to both of you as we mourn the loss of Kenje. I have so many great memories of him, and I think of him often with fondness. I'm thankful he gave me my first dental job, and I've enjoyed working in the field for many years since then. I saw him and Wilma at Parkway when I was in Sterling two years ago; that was a very special day! May God's peace surround you both in the times ahead. With fondness, Marsha and family

Dearest Kenjelyn, In a plan so long ago, your father and our father shared the same thread of life tethering them to a WWII B24 Liberator. Because of them, it was destined we now share a bond founded on the valor of American Brothers. For all tomorrows, we see your father's face; we hear the sound of his voice; we celebrate his laurel: a life well-lived. We love you and your mother, from Polly and Janet Locke, daughters of James P. Locke 15th AF 451st BG(H)726th BS, Castellucio Airfield, Italy and 8th AF 493rd BG(H), Debach Airfield, England.

Wilma and Kenjalin,
I am so saddened to hear of the loss of Kenje. I can't believe that he and Wally died just a few days apart. I will be unable to attend services for Kenje because I am here in Minneapolis with my daughter but please know you are in my thoughts. Be strong and depend on your memories of the happy times to sustain you. Fondly,
Monday
