Rest in Peace my friend.

Back in the 50s and 60s Joe wrestled for Nick Gulas at the old Hippodrome on West End Avenue in Nashville, with Corsica Jean. Now Jean and him are teamed again wrestling for Nick in that golden arena; two out of three falls with an everlasting time limit. This is only bye for now, til we meet again. We love you Joe and you will truly be missed.....George Gulas and Family.
