R.I.P. "Mr. Kellogg"

I am saddened to learn of the passing of Mr. Ed Wilson, a renowned Associate Dean at Kellogg during my time there, on Wednesday, September 18, at the age of 84. I had the unexpected pleasure of meeting him again in 2014 during my second posting in the United States, and I was deeply impressed that he remembered my name 18 years after my graduation. This reunion inspired me to launch the 'NTN Senior Executive Development Program at Kellogg' during my tenure as CEO of NTN Americas.  Mr. Ed Wilson was known as "Mr. Kellogg" or "Dean Don Jacobs' right-hand man.” https://tedsogo1996.blogspot.com/2024/09/rip-mr-kellogg.html?m=1 < Shared photos in Kellogg Class Yearbook >

I was greatly inspired to learn that those who learned karate from Master Okawa during their student days are now thriving in various industries. < May 2014 in Canada > October 10, 1981: Celebration following a karate demonstration at the Wakei Juku dojo in 1981.
