Obituary for ​Alice Hisaye (Nishimura) Osada

Alice Hisaye (Nishimura) Osada, 96, Brooklyn Park, passed peacefully at home on June 5.

Born on April 29, 1928, Alice lived through a special time in history as her family was placed in an interment camp in Tule Lake, CA. After the war, her family relocated to MN. Alice completed High School at North High. She worked a few jobs before she met back up with the love of her life and married in November, 1949.

Many knew her as the “roadrunner” due to her speed around the golf course and the Community Center doing laps. She was also a magnet connecting with people and becoming a friend to all. Alice lived a full life with passion, energy and heart. Family was everything.

Alice is survived by her loving husband of 74 years/7 months Takeshi; children, Ann (Gary) Monson, Mike Osada, Scott (Leann) Osada, Kim O’Quinn, Lynne (Todd) Delveaux; ten grandchildren, seven great-grandchildren and many loving extended family and friends.

In lieu of flowers, please donate to Twin Cities Buddhist Association or Breast Cancer Susan G Komen.

A memorial service will be held at Evans-Nordby Funeral Home in Brooklyn Center on Wednesday, June 26 with Visitation 4-6pm and Service 6pm.
