Mr Koji Katsuta past student's exhibition Dear Friends, We are sending this e-mail with profound thanks and gratitude to your school where our beloved late Mr Koji Katsuta studied and developed his artistic talent. We are the parents (now living in Tokyo, Japan) of the late Mr Koji Katsuta who studied at St Stithians College between 1889-1992 where he started to develop his talent for art. It is a happy and good memory that the late Mr Koji Katsuta could have been provided with the opportunity of studying at your school, particularly so in the sense that his artistic talent was developed and enhanced with generous and proper guidance by his teachers and friends. We are not sure now that whether the wall painting at dormitory's dining room is still there or not, but if it is still there, the design was initiated by our beloved Koji Katsuta and it was elected by the school. Koji Katsuta with the help and work by many friends created it during the school holiday. After he left St Stithians, he joined an art school in Tokyo, but left for New York to satisfy his thirsty for art and enhance his talent at a more professional institute in New York. After graduation, he worked for design institutes while he simultaneously pursed his own way for satisfying his thirst for art and also enhancing his talent in his own manner, but passed away at the age of 31. Left in the dark abyss and deep sorrow, we pondered over what we can best offer him, and eventually we thought that his soul might be consoled by holding his art exhibition in New York where he had many friends with whom he studied together, cheered up together, enjoyed friendship, and having been helped by . It is our sincere wish that this invitation to the art exhibition could be forwarded to: *All students at your school *all teachers and friends *those people as referred to below with whom Mr Koji Katsuta owed much for his happy school life (if they are contactable) ; Mr /Mrs D B Wylde - then active headmaster (who made a trip Japan after we left SA and stayed at our house to have interview with headmasters of primary /junior /senior high school and also university for facing different way of education) Mr/Mrs Marilyn Brink (mathematics teacher); Mr Keet (tennis coach teacher); Mrs Margaret Hope (teacher for art ); Mr Michael D Stalley (then active vice head master); Mr Koji Katsuta's schoolmates. It is our cherished desire that, if at all possible, some of you and some of our gratifying people may kindly visit the exhibition, or you may kindly make a call to any friends or residents nearby in NY. N.B.: Mr Yuzo Katsuta and Mrs Junko Katsuta stayed in JHB for about 12 years between 1989 and 2001. With sincere wishes and gratitude, Junko Katsuta Yuzo Katsuta 5-223-402,Yamamoto-cho,Naka-ku, Yokohama City, Kanagawa Pref.
