July 12th was the 4th anniversary of my boss's death. I worked under him for five years. He was a neurosurgeon, and he was so kind to his patients. One day, he gave me a suit of leathers (link) knowing about his upcoming death. The leathers always remind me of him. I visited his grave this morning.
The temple which manages this graveyard runs a kindergarten, too. Today, a briefing session was being held for those who will start kindergarten next spring. Look at the third picture, which shows several pickup vehicles for kids. Can you see the blue and red bus with the face of Thomas on the front. Thomas is the main character of the British TV series, "Thomas the Tank Engine & Friends". My daughters were fond of the drama. I assumed that lots of kids would cheerfully get on the bus every morning and afternoon.
