Obituary: James Edward Kurkowski
Born: , 8, 1949
Died: , 16, 2013
Jim Kurkowski, age 64, born in rural Downey, California, entered the presence of his Lord on , 16, 2013, at his home in Cypress. He was born in Downey Community Hospital on morning, 8, 1949, the son of Esther and Gerald Kurkowski. He attended Good Shepherd Lutheran School, South Junior High, and Downey High School, graduating in 1967. It was in his Downey public school days that he met his future wife, Maureen Herrmann, in history class. dated throughout high school, and, with their parents permission, were married 28, 1968, at Good Shepherd Lutheran Church. Eight months later Jim was drafted into the United States Army. He was stationed at Fort Lewis, Washington before deployment to Vietnam. He sustained multiple metal fragment wounds, seriously injuring him, resulting in a lengthy hospitalization from 1970 until his honorable discharge in 1970. He remained forever thankful to God for his healing which he attributed to people praying for him back home.
Jims career path took him into gardening and landscape. He attended Mt. San Antonio , receiving an Associate of Science degree in landscape design. He always struggled with the Latin names for plant material, but never forgot his favorites, like Albizia julibrissin and Washingtonia robusta. Years into his career, and by this time he was parks supervisor, he discovered he was dyslexic. Jim spent two years with a dyslexia specialist receiving tutoring especially designed to equip him to be a better reader and speller. Because of his own difficulties with reading and spelling, Jim became an active volunteer with Bethany Lutheran School Student Success Program.
Jims career allowed him the opportunity to work for the cities of Los Angeles, Anaheim, Glendale, and finally Whittier, where he retired as director of parks in 2010. Jim remained in contact with many of his fellow co-workers over the years, occasionally making time to meet for breakfast or lunch just because he was that kind of man.
retirement, Jim served on the grounds committee for his community of Tanglewood North in Cypress and maintenance gardener caretaker of Friendship Square at Bethany Lutheran Church. He was also a very enthusiastic fan of the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim. He applied for the position of usher and began working there in 2011 and returned for what would be his final season in 2012.
Survivors include Jims wife of 45 years, Maureen; daughters Mrs. Jason Smith (Kelly) of Arrowbear, CA, and Mrs. Trent Nelson (Holly) of Binghamton, NY; grandchildren Haylee Smith, Loren Smith, Russell Nelson, and Melanie Nelson; sister Mrs. Joann Davis of Temecula, CA, and sister-in-law Mrs. Karen Kurkowski of Anaheim, CA; and his many nieces and nephews. He loved his family with a huge heart.
Jims legacy to family, friends, neighbors, and co-workers would be: 1) love the Lord Jesus with all of your heart, mind and soul; 2) husbands \ take care of your wives and children by providing for them now and after you e gone; and finally, 3) SEE YOU IN HEAVEN!

Obituary: Sayeko, was born on 9, 1939, to Niichi and Yoshiko Matsunaga in Thornton, California. With her husband, Sam, and children at her bedside, she passed away peacefully on Thurs- day, 17, 2009.

Early in her childhood during WWII, Sayeko and her family were interned in the Tule Lake Relocation and later moved to the Manzanar Relocation . When WWII ended, the family settled in Selma, California, where Sayekos journey begins. She graduated from Selma High School in 1957, then from Fresno City where she earned her AA degree. It was during these years that she met Sam in 1956, and later married in 1962.

She worked at Quinn Caterpillar and retired after 25+ years, enjoying her work and developing lifelong friends. There were two events which stood out most while she was working there. First was when Quinn invited her and Sam and a few other employee "red wavers" to fly on the company jet to watch the Dogs play the Oregon State Beavers in Corvalis, Oregon during the Dogs 1983, NIT Championship run. The second event was when she and Sam were invited to attend a one-week, all expenses paid conference in Maui, Hawaii, hosted by Caterpillar Financial.

From 1956 through 2006, she enjoyed attending Fresno State football and basketball games with her husband, family and friends. During her life she enjoyed spending time with her family, Selma High Class of 1957 and her Le Donne friends. As her health declined in the past few years, she especially enjoyed spending time with her grandchildren.
The family would especially like to thank physicians Dr. D. Robert Lewis and Dr. Christopher R. Perkins for her medical care and also to Gloria Panelo at Clovis Community Hospital for the "above and beyond" quality of care she provided during multiple stays at CCH.

She is preceded in death by her sister Nancy Yagi; and brother Kenny Matsunaga.
She is survived by Sam Kurisu, her husband of 47 years; her two sons Ron Kurisu and his wife Cynthia and Gregg Kurisu and his wife Jaeklyn; four grandchildren Elise, Brandon, Kayla and Jenna Kurisu; her sisters, Dorothy Kobashi, Sally Maresh, and Toshiko Horio; and her brother, Mitsuo Matsunaga.
