Dear Chester Green's Family
I was hurt sadden and very upset once I heard that another one of my UNITED KARATE STUDIOS Black Belts Brothers had completed the competition of LIFE in 2023. Chester Green John Sulsby and Randal Deloach all have profoundly impacted the way I live my Life the way I Love others and why I cherish my LIBERTY IN CHRIST JESUS. These men poured part of themselves in me at different times during my martial arts Training Testing and Tournaments. We ALL are Forever Grateful for our Fearless Christian Martial Arts Teacher Pappa Ben Kiker and His Amazing Wife Mamma Vickie Kiker's tirelessly PRAYING FOR ALL GOD'S PEOPLE AROUND THE WORLD ESPECIALLY OUR UKS FAMILY.
