kiddybombs 40 Posted March 20, 2018 Downy's guitarist, Yutaka Aoki, died at the age of 48 on Monday, March 19, at 14:50, with acute bone marrow sarcoma leukemia. At the funeral, only relatives will ceremony by the wishes of the bereaved family. I am afraid that you will be able to decline the attendance of the general public. http://downy-web.com/news/news20180320.html 8 indigo, suji, odrep and 5 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
