The British Wrestlers Reunion are deeply saddened to announce the death of Frank Rimer.
Frank died of natural causes, quietly in his sleep, with no pain on the 12th February 2021.
Frank was fit and healthy the day before, so we are all very shocked but the comforting thing is knowing he went to bed the night before just like any other night, with no fear, no hurt, and with only love in his heart.
Although Frank had undergone a hip replacement operation in December he was recovering well and was back driving his car and doing some shopping etc, he had also had his first Covid jab and had no side effects. When we last spoke to him on Wednesday 10th February he was in fine form and was keeping himself busy during lockdown although he was keen to get back to his allotment which he loved tending to and had won awards for in recent years.
Frank was everyones friend, he was a legend in wrestling and had done it all. He was very instrumental in making the British Wrestlers Reunion the great success it is today and his sudden passing has devastated us all.
A full obituary has been posted to the Reunion website and Frank has also been added to the Dressing Room in the Sky.
Joe D'Orazio, Sarah Bridges and myself send our condolences to Franks family and friends at this very sad time and may he now RIP.
So very sorry to hear this. RIP Frank.
