Professional Wrestling Dies at age 29

Courtesy of Brian Tramel of Rasslin Riot Online:

-The phone has been ringing like crazy the last hour and it has been confirmed by the Pemiscot County Police Department, Tank died earlier today. Apparently he was sitting in a county office when he started to feel weird and thought maybe he had been stung by a bee. He told them he was highly allergic and they rushed him to Dr. Barnard’s office in Caruthersville, MO. He had stopped breathing and they could not get a tube in his throat or help revive him after that. Our condolences to the family. I will have update as soon as I find out arrangements.

UPDATE:

-I just got off the phone with Tank’s wife Helen. She said that as they were sitting in the welfare office yesterday Tank’s eye started to swell. He went out to the car to get some Benadryl. He then told her that they needed to go to the doctor’s office because he felt like he could not breath. Tank drove himself to the doctor’s office and Helen believes that Tank died at the office before the 911 ambulance arrived. Helen says she does not think it was a bee sting, as Tank had said nothing to her about being stung. The coroner and doctor’s office are telling her that the official cause of death is a heart attack. Apparently area worker Ricky Andrews had arrived at the doctor’s office before the 991 ambulance had arrived.

—-Helen is making arrangements at 9:00 AM this morning and I plan to talk to her again later today. I will keep everyone update. Tank leaves behind his wife Helen, his daughter Teela and step-daughter Kayla. Please keep them in your thoughts!!!


Another Update:

—-Visitation will be held Monday at John W German Funeral Home in Hayti, MO from 12:00 PM to 2:00 PM with services following that. Below is the address. If anyone would be interested in making donations towards helping the family pay expenses, please contact the funeral home. Anyone else have any ideas about benefits and such, please contact me. I am willing to help out as much as I can. Tank did not have insurance and this would be a great time for us all to pull together and try to help them out!!
