So wonderful that he shared his story. Such a loss. Love to all his family here and Japan.

Rest well Kaz - may your soul be surrounded with the souls of all your fondest loved ones; human and canine. We met when we were each 21 in 1980. It was very wonderful to watch Kaz able to accomplish so much. Condolences to his wife and other loved ones that will miss this fine man. (22 your way Kaz.)

What privilege to have this interview with Kaz. He will be sorely be missed. Condolences to his family and many close friends. 1:06:08

What a wonderful soul! Fly high Kaz, gone way too soon.

Kaz trained my miniature poodle for the show and won best in show in 2011! I was so excited to learn that he won westminster kennel club. His story is so inspiring. I am so very sad that he passed away! RIP! PS also, sage and my dog are second cousins!

Enjoyed the interview and loved hearing his voice again. I remember when he came here and lived with Mr &Mrs. Clark. So humble, kind and the consummate professional. RIP friend

Wonderful story of an incredible career in dog showing.Im happy he gotten his BIS! RIP

Rest in Peace sir😢

Inspiring story. Wish I had had the pleasure to see Kaz show in person... thank you both for this interview!
