The Foster City woman appeared to do everything right. So why did her case take so long?
Tadashi Tanabe and his wife Mosuko got married in Japan 65 years ago. Tadashi loved to tend to his garden at his home in Foster City. One day, he suffered a stroke and died shortly after surgery.
His daughter Aileen Nelson fondly remembers him. My father, he was an amazing man. Quiet. He s quiet, but funny, had a good sense of humor. A wonderful husband, wonderful father, she said.
