1960s Greats Still With Us

While reading something completely unrelated elsewhere, the name of John Naylor came up. Should he be on this list? Born in 1944 apparently.

George Passalaris is no longer with us

Should be up to date now.

Is Dave Larsen still alive ?

I think we are missing Don Robinson, Anglo.

One name possibly missing from this list is Judd Harris?

We had moved Jon Cortez and Bobby Barnes on to the 50s list a while back as they wrestled on BBC in 1954.

Good to see my name still on the list! Best wishes! Eddie Rose (Manchester)😂
