MP Zimmer on the Recent Passing of Pacific Western Brewing Owner Kazuko Komatsu

PRINCE GEORGE-Bob Zimmer, Member of Parliament for Prince George-Peace River-Northern Rockies issued the following statement on the recent passing of Kazuko Komatsu, owner of Pacific Western Brewing.

“I was saddened today to learn of the loss of one of Prince George’s leading businesswomen. Kazuko Komatsu was an excellent example of the opportunities that are available to anyone willing to take a chance and work hard. By all accounts she was dedicated to her company as well as her community and gave back in many different ways.

A few of the contributions that stand out to me are, Pacific Western Brewing’s official sponsorship of the 2015 Canada Winter Games as well as the company’s funding of the planting of 100,000 seedlings in order to help BC recover from last year’s wildfires.

I would like to take this opportunity to offer my condolences to the friends and family of Kazuko Komatsu during this difficult time.”
