 Master Eugene McClone
1939 - 2022

On Friday, October 28 we lost a beloved member of our family, Master Eugene (Gene) McClone.
Master Gene passed away peacefully Saturday morning and leaves behind a legacy that will never be forgotten. He spent countless hours training both training and teaching. Not only was he a mentor to those he taught, he imparted wisdom beyond martial arts in how to approach life with the mantra of "Great, Super Great and Getting Better Every Day." Master Gene expressed this sentiment every time you asked him how his day was going and he meant it, and he had the uncanny ability to bring you up no matter how your day was going before you asked. Master Gene was a native of Wisconsin, loved sports throughout his childhood and well into his adult life including football, baseball, and basketball--collegiate and professional. He was an avid reader and enjoyed traveling with Mary Ann.
He started training in Tang Soo Do in September of 1991 and received his Black Belt in April 1994 and continue on to be awarded the rank of 4th Dan Master in September 2012. He was trained and taught the Chinese martial art of Tai Chi for many years.
We are saddened by this loss and know that Master Gene would want us to continue training every day, teach others where we can, and to make sure an appreciate all aspects of life. He will be missed and his legacy will live on in all of those who train and teach in their own lives moving forward.
Tang Soo!
