Grand Park Obituary

So sorry to find out Master Park passed away in 2013. I had Master Park at Lawrence Tae Kwon Do as a kid. I sent my son to his first Tae Kwon Do class today and it brought back fond memories of classes with him, including Master Park's red plastic bat he'd lightly tap on our heads if we didn't behave at home. He has touched the lives of many for the better. RIP

Master Park was my teacher at HIJC. He is a very honorable man. RIP

Barb, just wanted to let you know I would be happy to come clean for a couple of hours to help you ready for the memorial service. I was a student of Master Park. Let me know if you would like some help- I clean and organize professionally. Melissa Hickam- 785-865-3722

I was saddened to hear of Master Park's passing. We met through business, but always enjoyed talking about our lives and our faith.

Truly a gentle-man, and a light of blessing. May God comfort all who miss him.

As a child I had trouble with controlling my emotions. Master Park taught me not only physical control but mental control. His lessons went beyond Tae Kwon Do and encouraged everyone in several other aspects of life and would then follow up with parents. I, like many others cannot imagine myself today without Master Park. My thoughts are with his family and Lawrence Tae Kwon Do Academy.

We were sad to hear about Master Parks passing. I'm sure he had a positive influence on his students. Our deepest sympathies to his family and students.

A Celebration of Life will be held on Saturday, February 15th, 2014, at 2 PM at Lawrence Tae-Kwon-Do School, 1846 Vermont Street, Lawrence, KS, 66044. (Nice/casual dress recommended.) Any condolences may be sent to the school.

I was a widow with a young son to raise. My son, Michael Olson, studied under Master Parks for years, & was greatly guided by his teaching. I am so grateful for this humble, great teacher, & all he did for my son. Thank you, Master Parks, Lori Costabile

Master Park taught strength of character as well as physical strength, and emphasized that the first was the most important. That message has made an enduring difference to our family as he helped shape our children's ethics and aims in life. He will be sorely missed, for sure, but he lives on in all his students, each of whom he cherished as his own. This one man made a positive difference in the lives of many more than we will ever be able to know, as the ripples of his message continue to extend in ever widening circles. We thank him deeply and know that he is at rest,in well deserved peace.

Master Park will be greatly missed. He had been my teacher and friend for Many many years. I met him approx. 30 yrs ago while hanging from a pole installing his cable. His unique way of teaching, especially with the kids was more than just learning to fight, he also taught morals and values to his students. And even though at times his lectures during test periods were long :) I will miss them. I know that he is healthy now and with his parents. RIP Sir.
