In Loving Memory of Mr. S, Nathan Sugimoto
Kevin Maximo-Sagon
In elementary, during long recess, me and a few of my friends would play ukulele with Mr. S. He would always teach us songs and crack some jokes. We used to call him “Cat Man”. He used to love telling us jokes about cats. He’d always say “That’s manapua meat.” We’d all laugh and say he was joking.
During fine arts trip 2017, we were at Knott’s Berry Farm. Me and a few other friends were riding rides and wanted a snack. We met up with Mr. S and Mr. Kato. We saw a popcorn stand and wanted to try a few flavors. I got the Cheetos popcorn and Mr. S wanted to try it. We devoured that big bag. Me and my friends decided to go on a ride. We did not wait and felt a bit queasy after the ride. We met up with Mr. S and Mr. Kato, they both were laughing at me and my friends.
These memories will always stick with me. We love and miss you Mr. S.
