A True Inspiration

By R. J. Garis

Chuck Norris was one of the very first major talents I had the privilege of working with early in my career as a publicist. Beyond his legendary status, he was genuinely kind, disciplined and generous, a true professional in every sense.

I also had the honor of training using his martial arts program and the lessons and techniques I learned from him continue to stay with me to this day.

He was not only an extraordinary athlete and iconic actor, but a deeply committed humanitarian whose impact reached far beyond the screen. He will be greatly missed. Rest in peace, Sensei.
