Obituaries
The following citizens of Japan have since departed for the afterlife. Their friends and family have provided for their funerary costs, and as a public service, we report their obituaries by district. With the bereaved, we mourn the loss of all human life, regardless of race, creed, religion, or orientation. May all those on this list be sorely missed. If you or someone you know has permanantly left this world, please reach out and contact us with an obituary of your own, and they will be included in next week's release.
Taihaku District
- Norman Liu - Cremated, Buried in Sunset Gardens. Norman was a groundskeeper who had lived a long peaceful life. For over sixty years, he dedicated himself to his work, and relished an afternoon well-spent working. He lived in a small house not far from his work, where he was survived by loving wife Fujiko. He was buried in a beautiful ceremony, under the trees which he worked so hard to cultivate.
- Xi-Wang Moiseyev - Buried in Federation Square Memorial Grounds. Xi-Wang started life on the difficult path of a foreigner, but was never resigned to his fate. His life was full of hard work, and satisfying rewards as a consultant for the Tamaribuchi Heavy Industrial Concern. His colleagues remember him by his intense personality, which never saw failure as an answer. He will be remembered as a man to have earned the title of "Japanese."
- Richard Richards - Cremated, Remains Appropriated by Federal Police. Richards lived a life of deceit-- he was born in darkness, and molded by it until his humanity was left bare and wanting. His only friends were pirates, thieves, and mercenaries which valued money more than human life. In his surrender, he recanted his life of terrible deeds, and before his sentence of death was carried out, he was allowed the mercy of dedicating the remainder of his life to civil servitude. Though he did not see the light of goodness until he was already doomed as a man, he lived as a testament to forgiveness and the benevolence of the state before his execution.
- Evanglyn Diavolo - Cremated, Ashes Cast into Diamonds. A woman of stature, glamor, and elegance: few words to describe the illustrious nature of such a woman. The name of Evanglyn fell in hushed whispers in her clubs, parlors, and parties. In a flash of terror, she was stricken down by a group of mindless Eurasian gangsters which sought to make an example of her success as a Japanese woman. Her remains, having been turned into the valuable diamonds which she enjoyed in life, will be moved to her synagogue in nearby Fujiworo to be blessed.
- Midoriya Kuwobara - Cryogenically Mummified, Interned at a Private Residence. Midoriya was a patron of the arts, having dedicated his expansive wealth to the cultural enrichment of Japan. As a medium, traditional Japanese theaters across the Federation depend on his many foundations dedicated to preserving the fine arts for future generations of Japanese children. His family has chosen to mummify his remains as per his last wishes, and interned in the family home as a testament to the immortality of Japanese culture.
