I don't talk a lot about my personal life on this blog. There are some posts here and there, but mostly it is about the nerd stuff I love. Not this one.
Pro wrestlers have a fear of late night calls. When one of them passes away, it always seems to be in the middle of the night. Last night I got the call from Christopher Elam's sister. Chris had a medical event happened while he was driving home and he passed away from the accident. He was only 51 years old.
He was one of the longest contributors to Xenorama, I loved his writing- it was creative, funny and intelligent. We spent a lot of time on the phone in those early days, talking about pro wrestling, sentai, comic books and more. We had grown apart in the last decade, for a wide variety of reasons. I hope he is at peace. I will miss him.
