Born in Kapoho, Yachiyo "Janet", loving mother, grandmother, great- grandmother, sister, and aunty passed away unexpectedly but peacefully at home in Honolulu on March 1, 2021 at the age of 92.

Although she worked for Manoa Finance for over 30 years she helped her parents, Shigeo and Harumi Iwashita in their numerous family businesses. She was quite the multi-tasker!
