Description
Full title:About 100 Issei and Nisei lay flowers on the graves of the dead of Japanese ancestry at beautiful Evergreen Cemetery in Los Angeles on Memorial Day. This is the first such observance since 1942. Later in the morning they listened to ministers of five faiths who spoke from the base of the memorial tower in the Japanese section of the cemetery. These ministers were Reverends Sohei Kowta, Kanmo Imamura, Tomoki Iwanaga, Joichi G. Yahiro and Frank Masahiro Omi. The Japanese graves were well cared for and in perfect order. Photographer: Mace, Charles E. Los Angeles, California.
