Not sure what to say?

Rest in peace my friend

I am so sorry for your loss. Sincerely, Donald and Beth Presley

I will never forget you my friend you was a very sweet and kind man I hope you and Roy have fun in heaven! Love you my friend ❣

You were such a good friend and we always protected each other in the ring and had some really great matches. You are going to be missed terribly thank you for being a part of our wrestling company and our lives. There is truly a void in our lives. Without you in it. See you again someday in that big ring in the sky.

Freezer was a very likeable man. I met him in the middle 90's after my training as a manager in wrestling. I will not forget the time he had 10 minutes in the ring with me when Reggie Montgomery lost his match against Freezer. I gave him rides to a lot of the shows we did. He was a very light hitter for the size he was. He was funny at times. He would joke with you. He is going to be missed by a lot of wrestlers,fans and his family. So long my friend. (Sir Rickey D.)

Rest in peace big man

He always put a smile on my face. Sweet man.

My sincere condolences to the Thompson family, may God comfort you in this difficult time.
