I'm Reni,
Our very beloved first Betty MacDonald Fan Club Honor Member, Monica Sone passed away on September 5, 2011.
Author Gwen Grant shared her thoughts but we got so many touching messages from our international Betty MacDonald Fan Club members. Here are only some examples to show how people feel.
David, author, Japan:
It is indeed sad news. Monica Sone touched many people in her life.
Blessings, David
Lorinda, Washington State
It is very sad to hear that Monica Sone passed away.
I did not realize she had a Masters in Clinical Psychology - that is really interesting.
I suspect her intelligence was put to good use in that field and she helped a lot of people during her lifetime.
Maybe you could say she took the lemons life gave her and made lemonade!
Yours,
Lorinda
Janet, author and journalist from Seattle:
I look forward to reading Monica Sone's very important book NISEI DAUGHTER as I had friends who were also sent to those Japanese internment camps.
What a terrible thing my government did to those people!
One boy in my school class was sent there along with his family. Such a shame.
Many years later, my classmates and I were able to locate him living in another state and invited him to our class reunion. He accepted our invitation and even gave a little speech about his experiences.
It was wonderful to have him with us again. I have written several articles about him.
Many best wishes, Janet
Linda, USA:
I enjoyed Monica Sone's book Nisei Daughter very much.
It was a fascinating story of a life long friendship and Monica painted a picture with words.
I learned a lot and am so glad I've read it.
I enjoy any info about Betty MacDonald, her friends and her amazing life.
I wish I had been able to be a part of her world. Her outlook on life was infectious and it reached so many people, decades later her magic is still at work.
You have been a friend for a long time now, so maybe Monica Sone's and Betty MacDonald's spirit truly lives on.
Linda
We lost our very good friend Monica Sone and miss her so much.
All our love to Monica Sone's family and friends and to our Monica Sone and Betty MacDonald Fan Club members,
Reni

Monica Sone will live on
Good morning, I'm Desi,
Gwen Grant, beloved author and Betty MacDonald Fan Club honor member was sending this message to Betty MacDonald Fan Club founder Wolfgang Hampel:
I'm so very sorry to hear about Monica Sone.
I've just been looking again at THE PLAGUE AND I and loving all over again her pared down elegance and gentle personality.
Monica Sone (Kimi) was a person anyone could love and she has had a firm place in my heart since the day I met her through Betty's book.
I not only loved her but admired her so much. Kimi was one of the most memorable characters I have ever met through literature and, of course, she will live on, just as Betty does.
One of the highlights of last year for me was receiving her e-mail and I am so happy to hear that she liked my Christmas story.
Sad news that can only allow us to be glad that any of us got to meet Monica Sone, through the books THE PLAGUE AND I and NISEI DAUGHTER or in real life for it was such a privilege to know her.
Much love,
Gwen Grant
Thanks a Million dearest Gwen! I love your books and your Christmas story so much.
Monica Sone touched many people in her life.

Happy birthday dear Monica Sone
I'm Margit,
Dear Monica Sone and Betty MacDonald Fan Club Fans,
Betty MacDonald Fan Club Honour Member Monica Sone celebrates her 92th birthday on September 1.
Monica Sone is the author of Nisei Daughter. Monica Sone and her family had run a hotel in Seattle before Executive Order 9066 sent all West Coast Japanese Americans into exile.
http://www.washington.edu/uwpress/search/books/SONNIS.html
With charm, humor, and deep understanding, a Japanese American woman tells how it was to grow up on Seattle's waterfront in the 1930s and to be subjected to "relocation" dring World War II. Along with some 120,000 other persons of Japanese ancestry-77,000 of whom were U.S. citizens-she and her family were uprooted from their home and imprisoned in a camp. In this book, first published in 1953, she provides a unique personal account of these experiences.
"Monica Sone's account of life in the relocation camps is both fair and unsparing. It is also deeply touching, and occasionally hilarious."-New York Herald Tribune
"The deepest impression that this unaffected, honest little story made on me was of smiling courage."-San Francisco Chronicle
Wolfgang Hampel, Monica Sone's friend, author of Betty MacDonald biography, winner of first Betty MacDonald Memorial Award sent his very special birthday wishes:
Copyright 2010 by Wolfgang Hampel
Happy birthday, dear Monica!
I was rereading your book Nisei Daughter and I have to tell you that I agree with your many international fans. I wished I could read many more books written by great author and unique personality Monica Sone.
I also agree with the New York Herald Tribune review of Nisei Daughter: Monica Sone's account of life in the relocation camps is both fair and unsparing. It is also deeply touching, and occasionally hilarious.
Yes, that's it! Deeply touching, also occassionally hilarious! When I'm reading your great book ( Nisei Daughter belong to the VERY few books I'm reading over and over again ) I'm really deeply touched. I'm with you and your great family. I adore your outstanding book and even much more I adore your unique personality. You are a genius but very human and warm with a deep understanding and a golden heart.
The first time I heard your very warm voice I was lost. To me it's the most beautiful voice in the whole world. Voice and personality fit together in just a perfect way.
Thanks A Million for your friendship.
Although we are far away you and your family are always in our thoughts.
Many hugs and greetings especially from Master Peter to great Lady Monica.
All our love
Wolfgang, Angelika and Peter -
your old Wolf and your many fans worldwide
Wolfgang Hampel Founder of Betty MacDonald Fan Club and Betty MacDonald Society
http://wolfganghampel.blogspot.com/
We'd love to hear from Monica Sone fans.
Send your birthday wishes to lindelund2000@yahoo.com, please.Thank you so much!
Regards,
Linde Lund

Dear Monica Sone and Betty MacDonald Fan Club Fans,
Betty MacDonald Fan Club Honour Member Monica Sone celebrates her 92th birthday on September 1.
Monica Sone is the author of Nisei Daughter. Monica Sone and her family had run a hotel in Seattle before Executive Order 9066 sent all West Coast Japanese Americans into exile.
http://www.washington.edu/uwpress/search/books/SONNIS.html
With charm, humor, and deep understanding, a Japanese American woman tells how it was to grow up on Seattle's waterfront in the 1930s and to be subjected to "relocation" dring World War II. Along with some 120,000 other persons of Japanese ancestry-77,000 of whom were U.S. citizens-she and her family were uprooted from their home and imprisoned in a camp. In this book, first published in 1953, she provides a unique personal account of these experiences.
"Monica Sone's account of life in the relocation camps is both fair and unsparing. It is also deeply touching, and occasionally hilarious."-New York Herald Tribune
"The deepest impression that this unaffected, honest little story made on me was of smiling courage."-San Francisco Chronicle
Wolfgang Hampel, Monica Sone's friend, author of Betty MacDonald biography, winner of first Betty MacDonald Memorial Award sent his very special birthday wishes:
Copyright 2010 by Wolfgang Hampel
Happy birthday, dear Monica!
I was rereading your book Nisei Daughter and I have to tell you that I agree with your many international fans. I wished I could read many more books written by great author and unique personality Monica Sone.
I also agree with the New York Herald Tribune review of Nisei Daughter: Monica Sone's account of life in the relocation camps is both fair and unsparing. It is also deeply touching, and occasionally hilarious.
Yes, that's it! Deeply touching, also occassionally hilarious! When I'm reading your great book ( Nisei Daughter belong to the VERY few books I'm reading over and over again ) I'm really deeply touched. I'm with you and your great family. I adore your outstanding book and even much more I adore your unique personality. You are a genius but very human and warm with a deep understanding and a golden heart.
The first time I heard your very warm voice I was lost. To me it's the most beautiful voice in the whole world. Voice and personality fit together in just a perfect way.
Thanks A Million for your friendship.
Although we are far away you and your family are always in our thoughts.
Many hugs and greetings especially from Master Peter to great Lady Monica.
All our love
Wolfgang, Angelika and Peter -
your old Wolf and your many fans worldwide
