My deepest condolences Bob. My thoughts and prayers are with you as well.

I love all the support I'm seeing for you here, and I am happy that we can be a part of your family in your moment of need.

As expected, the auditorium at the Hombu was filled to the max. So much so, that the Fire Marshall had to stop the flow of well wishers. We opened up the gym, that's equipped with a very large screen, and we sent a feed from the auditorium into that gym.

All funerals were completed before the Memorial began, with the last funerals occurring that Saturday morning.

Wow, that's horrible, Bob. I can't imagine what a loss this is for you, for SKKA, and for martial arts in the Valley. My condolences.
