Remembering Rian Kazuo Ebesugawa
Chris Sketchley pays tribute in memory of Rian Ebesugawa - NVC Memorial Hall docent. Rian was a big help to the NVC and NVC Foundation in so many ways. He loved giving tours through the hall. Rian was a King County DA, and his skills were invaluable in putting the museum together. If I could not find information on a display piece or the display was missing something, he would find it.
