Following the news that former WWE Superstar Jim “The Anvil” Neidhart passed away, the wrestling world took to social media with remembrances of Neidhart’s legendary life and career, sending their love to his daughter Natalya and the entire Neidhart family. Natalya posted a message today thanking everyone for their love and support.

“I really want to thank everyone for all of the love that they’ve shown to my dad and my family in the last day. It means so much to us in this tough time,” Natalya wrote.

“My dad would be so blown away that you all thought so much of him. I can’t find the words right now to express what my dad truly meant to me, but in time I will be able to. I didn’t realize saying goodbye would be this hard. In lieu of flowers, contributions can be made to a cause that’s close to my heart and my dad’s, womensalzheimersmovement.org 💜
