Dear colleagues,

Another passing, of Hans Christian Andersen award poet, Michio Mado. Many of the songs that our children grow up on were written by Mado, and two books of his poetry, "The Animals" and "The Magic Pocket", were translated into English by the current Empress Michiko of Japan. He was 104, so a life well lived.

Sako
