Not really sure where I should put this. But as this man was himself a living history and tradition it's perhaps the best place for it to go.
It is with the deepest regret I have to tell all that Imai Masayuki Nobukatsu 10th Soke of the Hyoho Niten Ichiryu passed away last night.
The wake will be tomorrow, The funeral on Sunday. I have been asked to gather messages of condolence to read out at the funeral on Sunday.
Sorry but I am lost for anything else to write right now.
