A Sad Howl:

I met Elmer when he was assisting GM Luna Lema one night at the Inosanto Academy.  He seemed like a fine man as well as eskrimador.  Not only is this a great loss to his family, students and friends but also to the system which he inherited.

The wood is consumed, but the fire burns on.

On Behalf of the Dog Brothers and DBMA a sad howl of mourning,
