wow i just read now that he has died! i was in a film with roland in 1992 called live by the fist. roland was not only a great actor but he showed me a photo of himself and arnold swartzanaggar from 1975 when he and arnold where in a competition together lifting weights.
also during the filming of the movie "live by the fist" in corraigador i had given my camera to a guy i thought was with our crew to take still shots, well i was wrong, roland went to hunt him down but to no avail.

Rolando Pintoy was my uncle. He married my Aunt in America in the 1970s. The marriage didn't last, but I knew him for about a year. He was a nice caring man. He showed me as a ten year old how to do some things with the Arnis fighting sticks. I looked him up on youtube and found he passed in 2009. I'll pass that along to my Aunt who is still living in her 70s in Maryland and Florida.
