COVINGTON PD LT COL WAS ALSO KARATE PIONEER, AUTHOR IN NKY
Former Covington Police Lieutenant Colonel Bill Dometrich, who passed away last week at 77, was also well-known in karate circles:
Dometrich was a retired soldier and Boone County Sheriff’s Deputy, but the “Hanshi” honorific, meaning the equivalent of “teacher of teachers” or “grand master” in Japanese, is in recognition of his introduction of the Chitō-ryū style of karate to the United States. While Dometrich was in Japan in the early 1950’s as a member of the U.S. Army, he sought karate training by an Okinawan living in Japan who was a practitioner of Chitō-ryū karate. When he returned to the United States, he became one of the first Americans to teach karate and the first to teach that style here, eventually starting a school in Covington. He also wrote the book, Karate: The Endless Quest.More at the link, including information on funeral services: FOX 19
