I was so sad and shocked on hearing the news of Milton's passing.
From the first time I met Milton in the late 80's I found him to one was pleasant, loving and very endearing. This remained so during the intervening years when we met face to face on accasion, the last time being at my sister-in-law's home in London in 2015. Milton was also a close relative of my wife's family and he maintained regular contact with those who lived in London.
It is so sad that he would no longer be with us as I would have loved the opportunity to meet up with him again face to face.
Heartfelt condolences are extended to Tamika and the rest of the family, from my wife Donna-Mae and myself.
Cheers

I was devastated when I saw the new on fb back in June this year. I met Milton back in the mid 70’s when I signed up at the Michale Sobell Centre to learn Karate,
We became friends as we both worked our way through the grades to Black belt along with Geoff Thompson and Steve Byfield. Over the years I used to bump into him around
Angel in North London when would talk about old times and the state of Karate. Then a few years ago Geoff told me he was in a car accident and that shook me, then
I saw he was very active as a campaigner he posted pic at various events he attended, and I would receive emails from him telling me about a cause he was supporting.
Such a sad loss, he was a great humanitarian, martial artist and all round great and wise guy, he will sorely be missed.
My condolences goes out to you and all his family, Rest in Eternal Peace Ogarro-San.

Such sad, sad news, so very sorry to hear about Milton's passing and my heart goes out to his family and friends. Such a loss in all of our lives. Milton was one of the very best and kindest men you could hope to meet. He had a heart of gold, a man genuinely interested in people, always keen to listen and understand, always a laugh and a serious talker. I met Milton in the mid 1980s and we remained firm karate friends for the past decades. I will so miss long conversations with him, either in person or on the phone.....hours and hours talking about all the subjects under the sun. The world would be a far better place with more men like Milton in it, he was really one in a million and will be very much missed by many people in the many strands of his life. Deepest condolences and kind wishes to his family and close friends at this time as he is irreplaceable.

So shocked still with the passing of Milton, who for nearly 40 years, was a dear and close friend, Karate mentor, instructor and team member too with the WIKF and former UKKW. Milton was also a close family friend to my parents and sisters as well as many of my own students and WIKF team members.
He will certainly be missed by EVERYONE and ANYONE who ever met him and I'm sad that I won't get to see or speak to him again.
All our love, thoughts and prayers
