This is Kaoru, the second daughter of Yaguchi.

My father, Takao Yaguchi, died in his sleep on November 20th while his family watched over him. Pancreatic cancer was discovered in May this year, and we have been fighting the disease for about half a year. It must have been very painful, but I did my best without showing tears. He was a good father until the end. Thank you daddy. And thank you.
