The Absence Of Sifu G

By Cheryl Elferis

Gary George Elferis, 8th degree Grandmaster of martial arts. Most everyone called him Sifu G.

When we got married, Gary promised me a lifetime filled with lots of laughter. He made good on that promise. Our journey took us places we never imagined, and we ultimately settled in Costa Rica. How was I to know that six years later I'd be on the journey alone? Gary died on November 2, 2022.

The Absence of Sifu G started as a journal, an attempt to cope each day during his illness and after his death. At one point I decided my journal had to be a book that might help others with their grieving.

My life without Gary was a journey of climbing out of an abyss so deep I thought I would never behold the light again.
