Description An older brother of the donor, Masahiko Mizuno, was exposed at his workplace. Because he was by the window, his body was filled with glass fragments. Immediately after the bombing his father Doshin Kaneyasu and other family members searched for him but were unable to find him. Later, his cousin, who had also been searching for him, delivered this wallet and ashes to the family. Masahiko died 6 days after the bombing without seeing any member of his family.
