I have some very bad news to relay. Shihan Dick Severance has a form of
cancer that is in an advanced
stage. He's prognosis is not good. He is resting at home with his family
and close friends right now. Karl and Carol
and others are on their way down to be with them. When I hear more
information I will let you know. For now, please
remember Dick and his family in your thoughts and prayers.
