With deep love and gratitude, the family of Tsutae Kubo Sadler announces her peaceful passing on October 22, 2025, at the age of 95. Born on March 20, 1930, in Sasebo City, Nagasaki Prefecture, Japan to Jiyo Okano and Zenta Kubo.

Tsutae lived a life marked by grace, compassion, and unshakable faith. While in Japan, she met the love of her life, Doyle Neal Sadler, and the two were united in marriage on September 24, 1953—a marriage of love, devotion, and family.

Tsutae was a pioneer member of Soka Gakkai International (SGI) for over 60 years, where she served as a leader and devoted member. Her spiritual guidance, wisdom, and boundless optimism touched countless lives and inspired generations to live with courage, kindness, and joy.

As a wife, mother, grandmother, great-grandmother, and great-great-grandmother, Tsutae's legacy is one of unconditional love, resilience, and strength.

She is survived by her sisters: Naomi and Tomiyo of Japan; five children: Louise Allen, Margaret Murray, Doyle Sadler, Jr. (Barbara), Roy Sadler (Sandy), and Naomi Knue (Thad); twelve grandchildren: James(Tiffany), Tahlia (Chris), Madelyn (Jacob), Bryan (Alyssa), Renee (Matt), Patrick, Dylan, Bryce, Kaylen, Brittany (Bryan), Ryan, Alex; fifteen great- grandchildren: Isabella, Simone, James, Emma, Adrieanna (Brendan), Bella, Jevan (Kisha), Lilah, River, Gage, Stella, Jaxon, Emery, George, Archie; and four great-great grandchildren: Eleanor, Grace, Earlene, Kieryn and twins on the way. All of whom will carry her spirit forward in their hearts and lives. She was preceded in death by her husband, Doyle Neal Sadler, her parents, Jiyo Okano and Zenta Kubo, and her brother, Hisayoshi.

Tsutae will be remembered for her strength, guidance, friendship, her laughter, and the warmth she shared with everyone she met. Her family takes comfort in knowing that her light continues to shine through the many lives she touched.

A celebration of Tsutae's remarkable life will be held on Saturday, November 15, 2025, at eleven o'clock in the morning at the Soka Gakkai International Buddhist Center; 5520 N. Union Blvd, Colorado Springs, CO.

In her honor, donations may be given to Soka Gakkai International.
