Master Chartier owned and operated the oldest karate school in New Hampshire. For 20 years, he held tournaments in Laconia, NH to benefit the Laconia State School corrective surgery program. His students are spread across the globe and include an astronaut, the head of Interpol, and intelligence personnel at the Pentagon. He also spent many years training swat teams and both local and state police. He was a father, teacher, confidant, police officer, clown, mason and most of all a friend to everyone he met. His teachings have touched the hearts of many students, both young and old. His wisdom has been passed on and his spirit lives on through those he has taught. He will be missed by all who crossed his path. Because of him, Sikaran is alive and well and will continue to prosper. Thank you Sensei and may you walk with the angels for eternity. MABUHAY AND GOD BLESS |
