Oh gosh, very sorry to hear that. Had a chance to meet her in spring '14 or '15, I think, and had a truly wild time. I still have some take-home gifts from her shop that she gave me. Very sweet human being.
[QUOTE=Bubba1979;4021823]A Senior Monger was kind enough to PM me letting me know that the famed Akiko from Lakeshore Spa on Dobson has passed away. I know many of you had memorable experiences with her for sure.
At least twice when I was there she would go the refrigerator and bring out some cold Coors lights to enjoy during the session. She even taught me the Japanese version of Cheers! Kumpai!!
She told me she had married an American Pilot and he brought her here from Japan in the 70's I believe. She was very independent and strong. I for one will surely miss her.[/QUOTE]
