Stephanie Miyeko Nakajima Nelson Obituary

It is with deep sorrow that we announce the death of Stephanie Miyeko Nakajima Nelson (Broomall, Pennsylvania), born in Princeton, New Jersey, who passed away on February 19, 2022, at the age of 76, leaving to mourn family and friends. Leave a sympathy message to the family in the guestbook on this memorial page of Stephanie Miyeko Nakajima Nelson to show support.

Her parents had relocated to the East Coast to avoid incarceration and removal under Executive Order 9066, which empowered the government to force persons of Japanese ancestry into concentration camps scattered throughout the American West.

The family asks that those who wish to honor Steph's memory please consider making a charitable donation to the Tunnel to Towers Foundation in her name.
