3rd Black Belt
[FONT=Verdana, Times New Roman, Helvetica] I would like to break that news that Grandmaster Kallai Griffin of Springfield, Massachusetts passed away on Friday evening. Master Griffin was a big part of the new England Kenpo scene creating some of the finest fighting Black Belts this area has known. Master Griffin was promoted to 7th and 8th degree black belt by Master Parker. Master Griffin was responsible, along with Grandmaster Nick Cerio for bringing Ed Parker to New England for the first time and this allowed me to meet Mr. Parker and the IKKA of New England was formed. It was an honor to have worked with Master Griffin and may he rest in peace.
Sincerely & Respectfully, Tony Cogliandro
