- Jim Ross posted a blog earlier today in remembrance of his longtime friend "Dr. Death" Steve Williams who died after a long battle with cancer.
Here is what JR wrote:
"Since Steve 'Dr. Death' Williams passed away earlier this week I have not addressed the matter until now. Losing Steve, which came as no major surprise knowing how sick he was in the final days of his life, has affected me in ways that words cannot adequately describe."
"I grew up an only child and somehow from a rural, eastern Oklahoma background made my way into the unique and challenge business of professional wrestling. Then in the late 70's, I inherited a 'younger brother' by the name of Doctor Death. That began a 30+ year relationship that was challenged at times but it never failed us because of the foundation upon which it was constructed."
