Fujiwara, Takeo

Fujiwara, Takeo
Hakkaido, Japan JP

Takeo Fujiwara

Class of 1929. Takeo Fujiwara. Mr Fujiwara joined the LDS Church at Sapporo, Japan, on May 10, 1924. He was baptized by Brother Vinal Mauss of Murray, Utah, and was confirmed as a Latter-day Saints by Brother W. Lamont Glover of Brigham City, Utah. In 1925 he graduated from the Sapporo First Middle School (a high school grade in the US) and was engaged at the Prosecutors' Office of the Sapporo Provincial Court of Justice for ten months; then, in 1926, he was unusually appointed to the governmental post, a court clerk and court reporter, at the Kushiro Provincial and District Courts of Justice. He was engaged there for a year and a half, and during which time he was promoted to three higher degrees in the Han'nin Rank, the Japanese lowest governmental rank. This is an unusual promotion, because it usually takes at least three years to attain that promotion. In 1926, when President Franklin S. Harris of BYU visited Japan, Mr. Fujiwara met him in Sapporo. Through his encouragement, in November 1927 Mr. Fujiwara came to America to study at the Brigham Young University. He first graduated from B. Y. U. High School in 1929, and then graduated as the first Japanese graduate from the University, with a degree of Bachelor of Arts in June 1933. Mr. Fujiwara became well known around Utah and Idaho as a Japanese lecturer and entertainer, and gave many lectures and entertainments at high schools and various places in both states. He was the first and most prominent Japanese Latter-day Saint to go through the Salt Lake Temple. He taught Judo or Jujitsu, a Japanese art of weaponless defense at BYU. (The Improvement Era, September 1933.) ~ ~ ~ ~ Takeo Fujiwara, BYH Class of 1929 ~ ~ ~ ~ What happens to two dozen faithful church members who are almost totally isolated from their church for over twenty years? One of the best case studies of this phenomenon in recent years is the withdrawal of the missionaries, and essentially the Church, from Japan in 1924. From 1901 to 1924 the early missionaries in Japan experienced struggles, challenges, and some tremendous accomplishments. However, the Church's decision to withdraw all missionaries from Japan left the members in Japan almost entirely on their own from 1924 until 1945.
The Nara Era: 1924 to 1933 Into this vacuum came Brother Fujiya Nara of Tokyo to give some organization to the Saints. As a young teenager in Sapporo, had been baptized when he was seventeen, and had been ordained an elder at age twenty-four, in January of 1923. He had been mission secretary under presidents Stimpson and Ivie. Near the end of 1933 Elder Nara was transferred to Manchuria with his railroad job. Later records tell us that little if anything was going on in the Church by 1933. What happened to the Church and Elder Nara from 1929 to 1933 is one of the mysteries of the history of the Church in Japan.
The Fujiwara Era: 1934 to 1936 Nara was replaced by Japan’s second Presiding Elder, Takeo Fujiwara, the student who had gone to BYU in 1927. If the last years of Nara were the most vague, the first years of Fujiwara were the most clear—we have almost a daily account of his activities. If Nara had run the Church on his own and received his appointment almost as a surprise or afterthought, sustained and set apart by mail (if that’s possible), with a load of somewhat foreign instructions thrust upon him, Fujiwara received the actual “laying on of hands” by the First Presidency, had lived and been trained in the heart of the Church, and had received explicit instructions which he fully understood. Perhaps this different background accounts for the different manner of and results achieved by the two men. Takeo Fujiwara was born in Hokkaido in 1905 and was baptized on May 10, 1924, just before the mission closed. He lived in America from 1927 until he received his master’s degree from BYU in 1934. (He supported himself by explaining Japan through song, dance, dress, and martial arts to paying audiences.) As he spoke fluent English and was an unwavering Church member, he must have seemed to the brethren to be a logical replacement for Nara. On July 7, 1934, President Grant released Nara and set Fujiwara apart as Presiding Elder and a special missionary (an added responsibility Nara had not had). The Church would send him $35.00 a month so that he could afford to travel and communicate with the other Saints. On 27 September 1934, he reached Yokohama after spending a few weeks in Hawaii and having written to Alma O. Taylor about the total lack of missionary work among the Japanese in Hawaii. Fujiwara did everything humanly possible to restore the faith and activity of the members. He experienced both failure and success—ex-members hiding from him and his vigorous restoration activity campaign as well as a new mission magazine and the first priesthood ordinances in the ten years since the closing. During this time Elder Yoshijiro Watanabe (formerly of the Osaka MIA Presidency, but now moved to Tokyo) and his daughter Tazuko were Elder Fujiwara’s constant companions and greatest supporters. In March of 1936 Fujiwara was confined to his bed for two weeks, seriously ill, until he was nursed back to health by Sister Watanabe’s constant care. In the summer he became ill again and finally returned to his home in Hakkaido for a complete rest and recovery in August. For this reason the September Hattatsu was never published. From his home in September, and then from a hospital in November, he dictated letters to Alma O.Taylor apologizing for not doing more work. Finally, in February 1936, Taylor received a letter from Fujiwara’s father stating: With words of regret upon his lips that he had done so little for the church, uttering words of deep gratitude to all who had helped him . . . he went to what he calls heaven. Not knowing much about his religion, it is all very strange to me. Fujiwara died of pleurisy, and possibly tuberculosis, on 27 January 1936.

Class of 1959. Lorraine Fullmer. Senior Class Social Chair. Seminary Sweetheart Queen, Hi-Steppers, Senior Certificate, Special Art Award, Kiwanis Scholarship, BYU Scholarship. ~ ~ ~ ~ Lorraine Fullmer married Andrew J. Day III. ~ ~ ~ ~ My parents moved from Elsinore, Utah in my Junior year at South Sevier High School in Monroe, Utah. They moved to LaSal, Utah to manage the Redd Ranches store, which meant that I would have to take a school bus 40 miles each way to high school in Blanding. I decided that I didn't want to do that so I arranged to go to Provo and live with family friends. The Redd family introduced me to BYH because their children went there. I wanted to see if I would be interested in going to BYU, so I thought a year away from the sage brush and bus ride would be of help. And it was! But I felt like a lost soul that first day as I walked into those wonderful old halls. Everybody seemed to know what they were doing, where they were going and they all knew each other. There was one cute girl standing in the hall who wasn't talking to anyone and looked as out of place as I was. I glommed onto her and never let go. We became the best of friends and were so much alike. Her name was Linda Tenney and the bond grows stronger every year. I loved BY High. I learned how to study and found my teachers excellent and the classes challenging. I don't think I could have made it through my time at BYU without the discipline I had at BYH. One of the best experiences of the whole year was the day I met Juanita Rogers. I was leaving campus after school one beautiful fall day and she met me on the path. She grabbed me and said she wanted me in the gym in 10 minutes to try out for Hi-Steppers. I told her, "No way am I going to make Hi-Steppers, and thank you but no." She was a strong woman and I went. She was wonderful and helped me gain confidence in a school in which I was not comfortable. I went on to BYU and made it into the Cougarettes, which was such a blessing. Thank you Mrs. Rogers!!! I was also elected a Social Chair along with Gary Rose. One of my jobs was to make posters to announce dances and coming events. One day after looking at one of my posters in the hall, Mr. Hellberg caught me in the hall and said, "If you want to keep your job as Social Chairman, you will have to learn how to do a poster." I guess it was awful. I met with him in the art room and we worked together on posters. I never did do a good poster (still can't) but I enrolled in his art class and found a niche in my life. I won a scholarship to BYU in art and it has been a love of mine ever since. I have won ribbons, sold to friends and in galleries. Thank you Mr. Hellberg! I had another teacher at BYH who was a puzzle to me: Mrs. Caine. She scared me to death when she looked at me or when I had to do an assignment in her history class. I soon found out after almost failing a few assignments that the cover of each assignment was as important as the content. I had to be real creative to please her. I never saw her smile but she was a very good teacher and made boring subjects come alive. Thank you Mrs. Caine!! Another wonderful event was that I was elected Seminary Sweetheart and was asked to give a talk at Seminary graduation. My life was good at BYH. Thank you BYH!! I married Andrew (Drew) Day after my first year at BYU. He was a returned missionary from Brazil and finished school shortly after I married him, so my stay at BYU was short. We moved to LaCanada, California where we began our family of five children. We now have 13 grandchildren and 1 great grandson. In 1980 we moved to Utah and have lived in Sandy since, except for three years we spent in Brazil as Mission President for the Brazil North Mission from 1987 to 1990. That was one of the highlights of my life. The hardest thing I ever did was to learn Portuguese. But I did it. My life has been good. We have traveled to so many wonderful places. We have three homes: a mountain cabin in Gunnison, Colorado; a beach condo in San Clemente, California; and our wonderful home in Sandy. It keeps us busy just remembering where we are when we wake up in the morning. I don't think I am complaining. My life is full of wonderful family -- church -- art -- quilting -- cooking -- friends -- book club -- traveling -- exercising -- I wouldn't trade any of it. I feel like a blessed woman. So much of it started at BYH.
