The latest in the series of "A Martial Artist Making a Difference" articles in he San Francisco Examiner, this one focuses on Eddie Frager (http://www.examiner.com/martial-arts-in-san-francisco/eddie-frager-a-martial-artist-making-a-difference), chief instructor of Bridgetown Aikido in Portland, OR and son of Rogert Frager.
From the article: "Some of my strongest memories of my Dad and Aikido are of when we would be alone on a car trip, just he and I, with hours to talk. Often, at my urging, the topic of Aikido and O'Sensei would come up. I never tired of hearing about my father training in Japan in the ‘old days’, what O'Sensei was really like, and how we could incorporate his ideals for Aikido on and off the mat."
