Farewell Masashi

I am lost for words and deeply saddened that Masashi has passed away. He succumbed to complications arising from a heart attack at 4pm on Wednesday, 8th of November 2006.

It is a great loss for his friends and family as well as the ballooning community.

We will remember his name and honor his deeds. In Motegi we will enjoy the fruits of his labour and make the competition one that is remembered for more than just his absence.

Soft landings Masashi, soft landings.
