While Jason was not a Xuesheng of the Jin Lian Pai but he was Peng you to our school & for the old guard that remember the theory classes held at the Denny's on State Hill Rd. Jason was our chef that made sure we ate so well after training. 道氣長存

"All things flourish, and each returns to its source. Returning to the source is stillness. It is called returning to one's fate." Dao De Jing 16

**Official Announcement**

We are deeply saddened to announce the passing of a revered master and mentor, Keith "Shotgunn" Morrison, known to us as Sifu Gunn, from the Golden Lotus Kung-fu Academy and the Jin Lian Pai.

Sifu Gunn was a beacon of wisdom and skill in the world of martial arts. His commitment to Kung-fu and the impact he made on his students and the martial arts community are beyond measure.

In honor of his extraordinary contributions, we are proud to posthumously elevate Master Gunn to the distinguished rank of Grand Master & Yup Sut Dia Gee. This promotion is sanctioned by his master & founder of the system, Grand Master John DeBellotte.

Our heartfelt condolences go out to Grand Master Gunn's family, friends, and students. His enduring legacy will continue to inspire and guide us in the art of Kung-fu.

We invite the martial arts community and all who were influenced by his teachings to join us in paying tribute to a true master. Rest In Power Grand Master Gunn!

In remembrance and respect,

John M. DeBellotte, Founder
