Larry & Nina Ragle (California Aiseki Kai) shared in the early afternoon:

It is with a very heavy heart that we share the sad news of the passing of our dear friend, Harry Hirao.
He was at home with his family.
There is little else to say at this time.

Once plans are in place, we will let you know.

Larry and Nina

Harry's absence leaves a hole in so many hearts. I vividly recall conversations with him that deepened my appreciation of bonsai & suiseki. More importantly, Harry always left me the impression of a gracious man willing to go the extra step to assist others in appreciating nature & their own potential. His unassuming graciousness masking extraordinary drive & talent marked the excellence of his life. I am fortunate to know several fine folks in Harry's circle whose positive energy approaches his.
