The March 11th earthquake/tsunami which hit Japan had the greatest human and financial impact in the Tohoku region of Japan. The lives of everyone in Japan are forever changed from the events of that day, none more so then those who live in, or have family in, the Tohoku region. Sadahara Mishina, is the Revenue Manager of our ANA Holiday Inn Sendai. Mishina-san's two year old daughter lost her life to the Tsunami. I would like to nominate Mishana-san to be an Olympic Torch Bearer because he embodies the spirit and strength of an Olympic champion; displaying integrity, honor and courage. Even though his family faced a loss beyond comprehension, Mishina-san worked even harder to take care of the guests and employees at the hotel. Mishina-san is an example of the humility and team spirit that is Japan. CR
