Ishikawa passed away ?

I saw on the WL exchange site that Emerick Kotaro Ishikawa the great Hawaii Lifter from the 40s passed away last Sunday at 86 years of age.
Nationals (lightweight?) champ from 44-47 , 6th at 48 London Olympics.
I dont know much more about him.
My image host site is acting up (again) so sorry no photo right now , but as I had not seen mention of it here , I wanted to pass the sad news along to those who may remember him.
