Congratulations From Fellow IKA Karate Sensei Ben Miller

Sensei Leo,

This note is to commemorate the opening of your new dojo, GONOSEN. I have thought for many years that your talent and ability warrant a special place where your artistic mastery is allowed free reign. As one who sat in judgment of me at my Dan test in Ju jitsu, I hold you in high esteem as one of my Sensei. As one who trained with me for and was my Waza partner at my Dan test in Karate, I am grateful for your companionship in martial arts. As one who worked side by side with me as a Security officer, I know you as a trusted and extremely capable colleague. As one who has shown genius and creativity in martial arts, I admire you as a true adventurer. As one who has supported my daughter and me in time of need, I trust you as a friend and brother. As one who has shown me a shining path to martial knowledge, I now honor you today.

Your friend and brother,

Ben...this 7th day in April. 2001
