Ozawa passed away about a year after the humanist writer Oe Kenzaburo died.  Both are contemporary greats in their area, were born in the same year (in fact they had a book published "We were born in the same year" ), and there was also a moving story between Ozawa and Oe's autistic son, Hikari ( 大江光 ):
