Hideko Hayasaka

I had the pleasure of working alongside Hideko for over 15 years. She was a truly lovely person and bought huge amounts of positive energy and happiness around the work place. We will all miss her dearly. X

Dear Hideko-San, It was truly amazing knowing you. Thank you for your love and care. You will be greatly missed.

Dear My Beloved Sister, Hideko (Sister whom I have chosen), My last conversation on WhatsApp with you was on 25th of May, and you did not tell me anything negative news, and we had a lovely chat. Also we could see each other last September and we had a good stay at your house for two days in Loughton with my husband Keith. You were always smiling without any doubts and we enjoyed home cooking and Spanish wine together. In the morning of our stay at your house , I always came in your bed early in the morning and watched Japanese General Election together, and we were disappointed with the result of it. You are my chosen sister even you are not my biological. That is why I could talk to you everything when I was happy or upset. That is why we always spoke with you once a week. Now, I only see you during my sleep and I can still talk to your spirit, which we can continue communicating. I know you are always there! I pray to the Archangels, St. Gabriel, Rafael, and Michel as well as our Buda in Japan. We will meet again on one of the planet in the universe sometime in future. Please rest in peace. Love and Kindness, Yuko (Keith and Eddie).

Hideko san, Hope you can rest in peace. Tadaharu

I was deeply saddened to hear about the passing of Hideko-san. We shared lot of time in the BCS meetings Please accept my heartfelt condolences. With all my sympathy Lucien Chocron

I was deeply saddened to hear of Hideko’s passing.  She was not only a wonderful golf companion but also a kind and inspiring person.  I will always cherish the memories we shared on the course.  My heartfelt condolences to her family. T Asano

I still keep memorable golf plays with Hideko san at Obrigado-kai in Portugal. Please accept my sincere condolences on her death.

So sad to hear of Hideko’s passing as we worked and had many laughs together for many years. The one that comes to mind was this. I was travelling through France and had finished early, so I emailed Hideko to arrange an earlier travel time. As always Hideko arranged this but asked why I had called her Hideous. I said what then realised it was predicted text Hid suddenly adjusted to Hideous lol. Will miss you and god bless you. Steve x

I would like to express my heartfelt condolences on the passing of Hideko-San. I am one of her golf friends and played golf many times together. I always remember her brilliant golf and her compassions to others. We all miss you. please rest in peace.

So saddened to hear of Hideko-San’s passing. She was a truly wonderful person whose kindness toward me and my family will never be forgotten. I am not sure she realised how much her support meant to me during our years working together, I will always be indebted to her. With deepest sympathy Rob Parkinson

I was deeply saddened to hear of Hideko san’s passing. Though we knew each other through work, her support and kind guidance went far beyond the professional. She offered thoughtful advice and encouragement that I will always remember with gratitude. My sincere condolences to her family, friends, and colleagues. She will be greatly missed. Warm regards Takako

Hideko san, you looked after us ALL so very well – with enthusiasm and without complaint. Thank you for all the willing help and support you gave us (and the good ‘laughs’ that we shared). We will miss all that. Now Rest in Peace as you so richly deserve. Your golf was invariably good – mine was much less reliable! May God bless you. Edward

We will never forget your kind smile and generosity. May you rest in peace.

I was shocked by the sudden news of Hideko’s passing. Thanks to Hideko discovering me 33 years ago, the three of us are still living happily in Europe. I was hoping to meet you this month when I went to London, so I’m very sorry. I imagine you were fighting your illness with all your might until the very end. Please take some time to rest. Thank you so much for everything.
