Sogen Kato

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Sogen Kato (加藤 宗現, Kato Sogen?, 22 July 1899 - c. November 1978) was thought to have been Tokyo\'s oldest man until July 2010, when it was found that he had likely died in November 1978, aged 79, and his family had never announced his death in an attempt to preserve his record. Relatives had rebuffed attempts by ward officials to see Kato in preparations for Respect for the Aged Day later that year, citing various reasons from him being a "human vegetable" to becoming a Sokushinbutsu. The cause of death was not determined due to the state of Kato\'s body.
