Dear Family,

Our beloved brother and truly a loyal son to True Parents, Mr. Yukichi Tate has made his transition to the next world. We truly are grateful for his example over the years to all of the American movement. He and his wife greatly comforted True Parents through their faith and heart toward heaven.

We give our sincere love and support to Mrs. Tate and their three children. Mr. Tate's was most noted for his leadership and example as an MFT commander bringing the best spirit of faith, sacrifice and loyalty into the hearts of many of our elder American leaders and members.

We are grateful that we can celebrate such a life at this time.

Sincerely in the Love of our True Parents,
Rev. Michael Jenkins

Mr. Yukichi Tate arrived in the US in September 1973. He was on the IOWC with Mr. Sudo. After that he was on MFT mission including in charge of MFTs in the Chicago region. In 1984 he joined the Fish Business and was a sales person up to 1992. From 1993 he was a Tribal Messiah both in Japan and in the US. During this time, he ran a small business in Seattle and in 1993 he joined True World Marine in New Jersey as a sales person until his illness did not allow him to work anymore.
