Memoriam
To all friends and students of Ten-chi Kenpo Karate:
We mourn the passing of Elliott Edwards, 11/6/2009
On November 6, 2009, Elliott Edwards passed away after a long battle
with cancer. Ten-Chi Kenpo Ryokudan and head instructor of the Boston
area dojos, Elliott taught and practiced karate, taiji and qigong. A
lifelong scholar who gave freely of his learning, he taught the very
young and the very old in equal measure, never begrudging his time or
expertise. Elliott was a marathoner, a student of photography, a poet,
and a scholar of American literature and Chinese traditional medicine.
We will miss his knowledge, his teaching, and his fierce love of life.
