paul kurata...

He passed away in the early morning on April 14, 2013, a Sunday. He was 85.

He was my Aunt's husband.

Hadn't seen him in over two years. The last time I saw him I dropped him off at the Venetian in Vegas after he took me and my father to dim sum near LV's odd Chinatown. Orchid's Garden- which by the way, has very good dim sum.

He looked good and fit at that time. However, me and my dad were amused that he thought he was 84, when in fact he was 83 at the time. I recall saying to him, "you don't need to add any more years to your age, hell I don't either!"

I didn't have a chance to say goodby to Uncle Paul, yet he will always be in my thoughts...

He was generous and gave me chances that I probably didn't deserve.

I want to thank him and I will always have respect for him.

Rest in peace Uncle Paul...
