If you grew up during the 70’s like I didb, you remember him from his television days. He was on Gunsmoke. Most noteworthy to a kid growing up during that time; he was a wise man on the show. He used his martial art skills in life to teach and inspire a young trainee on the television show, Kung Fu. Kids all around the nation wanted to be like “young grasshopper” with an adult who took the time to mentor him in life lessons.
