Dear Freedamnheads
I was crying last 5 days…I lost my best (Japanese) friend last Thursday…
You, So-Cal surfers, may know that “MITCHI”aki Ishida, owner of Amsterdam Wetsuit, passed away at his apartment in Dana Point CA, due to heart attack or something.
He was a very famous surfer in So-Cal surf community.
So many friends of his (and mine) are feeling so sad now.
I met him at Inspiration show on 2/9 and talked about 15-20 minutes, drinking beers together.
He looked so healthy, wearing sandals in a cold weather.
So I can’t believe why such healthy man was suddenly died…
His funeral will be held on 3/3 (Sat) 17:00-
at Fukui Mortuary
707 E Temple ST
LA CA 90012
See you there!
Rin Tanaka
