Frank Hester wrestled for Jim Crockett Promotions in the early 70's. He later
became one of the Dominoes with partner Pepe Lopez.They were managed
by J.C. Dykes in Tenn. Frank Hester and Pepe Lopez passed away in a 1976
car crash that also claimed the life of Sam Bass who was the manager of
Jerry Lawler.
 
Earlier this week at Wrestling Memories we received a note from the son-in-law
of Frank Hester.Frank's daughter was only four years old when he passed  
away. They are hoping to find some video footage of Frank Hester.Back in the
60's and 70's I remember seeing a lot of home movie camera's at the shows
I attended.I wish I had owned one. If anyone out there owns footage of  
Frank Hester while he was in the Mid-Atlantic,please pm me.
 
This photo of the Dominoes and J.C Dykes was included in the message we
received.
