A Memorial Service of John G. Komor

a mentor of Life

a long time president of Yokohama Foreign General Cemetery.

Yokohama Country and Athletic Club, Bluff Clinic, president and directors

St. Joseph College, a graduate of 1954

I was with him as a secretary of Yokohama Foreign General Cemetery for 30 some years, first met him on the train from Tokyo after the Cemetery meeting at Tokyo Kougyou Club in 1985 under Mr. Baker-Bates told us that the British Embassy group cannot take care of the Cemetery and Yokohama foreigners should do it. He took the presidency and we were able to build the present building and the fund of 400, 000,000 yen to have Koueki Zaidan Houjin.

More than that he found my father, Captain Ralph A. Caswell who returned the key of the Masonic Lodge in #1, Yamatecho under the command of General Eickelberger to Mr. Komor's father who was very active in requesting the return of the Masonic Lodge.

I was able to have a reunion with my father after fifty years.

I will never forget his kindness and perseverance for this.

May he Rest in Peace
