Makoto was a sweet, gentle soul, who remains to this day the only person I know who enthusiastically constructed a beautiful fenced hut for a tiny little rabbit named Pookiii, whom I had chauffeured from Montreal to Fredericton one sunny day in 1992, because my then-spouse Yoko was severely allergic to our pet. Upon arrival, Makoto and wife Noriko immediately made sure Pookiii and I were given a warm welcome, and because Makoto felt that Pookiii was a rabbit of good standing who was most deserving of the best accommodations, it was important that his new home offered the best in all forms of style and comfort. The enclosure was a splendid one, and I am convinced that Makoto's tender ministrations during the Pookiii years in Fredericton were what led to Pookiii having a long, happy life. Farewell, Makoto, thank you for who you were. Please give Noriko a warm hug for us all.
