It is with extreme sadness that we announce the passing of Yoshiaki Yamasaki. We are all shocked and saddened by this unexpected loss.

Yoshi was a beloved leader in our community, a son, a brother, a friend. He touched the lives of so many through his caring and profession. He served as the Executive Director of TPAC/WHCI for over 20 years, committed to addressing the health disparities, including mental health, substance use and HIV, impacting our communities. He was a bright light in this world, in his community and in the lives of so many.

The TPAC/WHCI board created this gofundme page to support the family to cover the cost of the funeral services. All the funds are going directly to his family.

Update: Thank you all for your donations to support the family. The family, board and staff at TPAC/WHCI are very grateful. We are planning a celebration of his life, please check back on our Facebook page and social media platforms for the celebration information.

Es con extrema tristeza que anunciamos el fallecimiento de Yoshiaki Yamasaki. Todos estamos conmocionados y entristecidos por esta pérdida inesperada.

Yoshi era un líder querido en nuestra comunidad, un hijo, un hermano, un amigo. Tocó la vida de tantos a través de su compromiso y profesión. Se desempeñó como Director Ejecutivo de TPAC/WHCI durante más de 20 años, comprometido a abordar las disparidades de salud, incluida la salud mental, el uso de sustancias y el VIH, que afectan a nuestras comunidades. Era una luz - una luz que brillará siempre - en su comunidad y en la vida de todos/as los que tuvieron la dicha de conocerle.

La junta directiva de TPAC ha creado esta pagina de gofundme para apoyar a la familia en los costos del funeral y los servicios. Todos los fondos van directamente a su familia.
