I was a big fan of his and followed his career. My only connection to him was my friendship with Stephanie when we worked at Tjmax. My belated sincere condolences to the family.

What a life BlackJack had. As a wrestler and behind the scenes with his family. For him to become a man of God and a minister late in life is insprining. What a wonderful ending to a blessed life. RIP.
Three generations of my Heflin family have always been big fans of you and your family.

My heartfelt condolences to the entire Windham family. I'll never forget keeping up with Blackjack by buying the Pro Wrestling Illustrated magazines and watching WWF once a week in the early 80's. What a blessed wrestling family that continues on in his name! #RIPBlackjackMulligan

My deepest condolences to "Black Jack's" family for your loss.. I enjoyed watching your father wrestle for many years and Barry and Kendall. Your Family, led by your father, brought many years of entertainment to wrestling fans. I met Kendall and his lovely wife Phyllis about 13 years ago when they owned a wonderful restaurant in Brandon, Fl.. I was a regular. The Wyndams' even put my name on a table reserved for me as a "regular" Again, my deepest condolences.
