Thanks to all of you that in recent weeks sent cards and letters of encouragement to former wrestler Johnny Heidman. Sad to report that Mr. Heidman passed away Thursday morning in a Charlotte-area nursing home.
 
Mr. Heidman, who just turned 90 December 26th, had been in good health up until three weeks before Christmas when he fell and was placed in the hospital.  Up until then Johnny drove his truck and visited the YMCA to swim three times a week.
 
He is survived by one son, John.
 
There are no plans at this time for a funeral service.  Will let you know if that changes.
 
You can send cards to his son:
 
Mr. John Heidman
P. O. Box 5370
Charlotte, N. C. 28299
 
(Thanks so much to Mrs. Pat Godoy for sharing this info and keeping us posted!)
