It is with great sadness that I share the news of the passing of a true martial arts hero, Joe Lewis. I just learned from John Graden, a friend of his. While I never had the chance to train with Joe Lewis, I was fortunate enough to correspond with e-mail and to talk with him on the phone. He was very generous with helping me do some research and providing other sources to also assist me.
I enjoyed his movies when I was younger, and liked watching films of his great fights. He was a true Champion, with a book about him called The Greatest Karate Fighter of All Time. He will be missed by all of us in the martial arts community. I wish peace to his friends and family, and hope he will rest in peace. He will be remembered always.
