Mr. Cooley

24 Sep 2024 — 1 min read

Our beloved Assistant Grandmaster Gerald Stine passed away at the end of August. The WTSDA has a nice obituary. "A loyal member of the Association for more than 40 years, he held the lowest Dan number, 14288, of all active Masters. He achieved the 8th Dan, Assistant Grandmaster-Boo Kwan Chang Nim, rank at the World Championship in 2022." We are lucky to have had him in our lives and association.

On OCTOBER 12, 2024 • 2:00 PM, there will be a celebration of BKCN Stine's life.

Double Tree by Hilton Hotel
1 DoubleTrce Dr, Rohnert Park, CA

Please RSVP to Lauren Stine @ 707+494-0544

I'll be driving up that day from SF, and have room for up to four others. Contact me if you'd like a ride.

Thank You!
