Slam! Wrestling first reported the sad news today on their Facebook page. They posted the following:
“It is with great sadness we share that Les Thornton peacefully took his leave on February 1, 2019 at 11:15 am, with his devoted wife, Terry at his side. In honour of Les’ wishes there will be no funeral service. Instead, those wishing to pay respects are invited to make a donation to the Calgary Humane Society.”
Our thoughts are with Thonton’s family, friends, and loved ones during this difficult time.
