Hey, everyone!

I found this online while searching for Bill Chung, whom I thought had died a few years ago. But the page is dated January 2017.

Not sure if it’s the same Bill Chung, but for those who may have known him, there’s a photo toward the bottom of the page.



Thanks!

That’s him. Sensei and I did many demonstrations with him. Fantastic guy.

When was this written? It says he is 75? I would have thought
older than that by now. Says 2016 at the bottom but don't know if
that is the date of the article.

Just heard back from Mario Tardif at the company. He writes, "The picture was taken over 10 years ago in Miami, Florida. The ceremony was organized by Julio Anta and the Chinese community. He was 75 years old at that time.  I don’t know if he is still alive but if he is he is on his mid-nineties.”

Wish I came across it a decade ago!

Chris, thanks so much for the research.    That age makes sense, but wouldn't he be 85 if that was 10 years ago?       I can't remember his son's name, maybe Phillip, who was a spectacular performer from a young age.    Bill was very proud of him

Yeah, that math didn’t really make sense….

I’ll see if I can find Julio Anta when I get a little free time.
