Stu Hart is Gone

(from The Wrestling Observer)

Stu Hart, perhaps Canada’s biggest wrestling icon, passed away at 2:25 p.m. Mountain time today from complications of diabetes and pneumonia at the age of 88.

Hart’s life in wrestling was legendary, starting as an amateur champion, promoting wrestling for more than 40 years in Western Canada and fathering a large family where every remember at some point either was a pro wrestler or married a pro wrestler.
