Fan Casting Suyin Iwao (née: Chikao-Ohtsuka) in Dastardly and Muttley

Suyin was Keiko’s loving mother, an former exchange student during Dick Dastardly’s teenage years though she was in kindergarten. She died from a car accident during a hazardous snowstorm along with her husband, rendering Keiko an orphan. It’s later revealed that Dastardly liked Suyin for not only her beauty, but her strength, and gave her a necklace (which later Keiko wears) as his only gift of love.
