Posted On April 24, 2023
It is with great sadness that we issue the following statement:
The North American Karate-Do Federation (NAKF) and the North American Collegiate Karate Conference (NACKC) wish to offer our heart-felt sympathies on news of the passing of Master Fumio Demura.
Master Demura was a great personal friend to our Master Kazumi Tabata and a great supporter of our organization going back many years. He was a welcome presence at a number of events and left a trail of fond memories behind wherever he went. He will be greatly missed.
We offer our deepest condolences to Sensei Demura’s family, friends, and all his students.
-Greg Cumings
President, NAKF
