It is with great sadness that we report the passing of Sensei Yosh Yoshida (7th Dan) of the Kamloops Judo Club. Sensei Yoshida had been with the Kamloops club since it’s opening in 1956 and was awarded several distinctions throughout his Judo career. He was instrumental in developing Judo in Kamloops and in 1998 was inducted into the Kamloops Sports Hall of Fame for his contributions to the sport.
A service will be held on July 19th, 2011 at 10:30 am at the Buddhist Church, 361 Poplar Street, in North Kamloops
