From the January 27th, 2005 Escrima Digest


I've also just been advised from Tony Veeck's Balintawak group - that their
Grandmaster Arnulfo L. Mongcal also passed away on January 15th 2005. GM
Mongcal was one of the top students of Balintawak founder - Venancio "Ansiong"
Bacon. Another major loss for the eskrima world.


This is also cross posted in Memorial Hall (http://www.martialtalk.com/forum/showthread.php?t=21389), please use that thread to show your respect.

I would like to use this thread to discuss the Balintawak Family and those that are carrying on the art.

With respects
