On Monday Jan. 25th I lost a dear friend named Georgiann Makropolous. I met Georgie in 1991 when I first started wrestling. She wrote the Chatterbox newsletter and was a great ambassador for pro wrestling. We live in such an uncertain world. We take it for granted we will see our loved ones and friends again. Unfortunately “tomorrow” does not always come. Don’t let regrets be a constant reminder in your life. We never know when life will be changed forever. Take the time to be kind to people. More smiles, more hugs and don’t be shy to say “I love you” When I was going through a hard time and my world seemed to crumble around me Georgie was a voice of hope and reason. I will never forget those calls.

It’s time to stop being caught in the trap of tomorrow. Take time for people you love. Leave work early, spend time with your family and take some time to listen. Cherish every word and every moment. We presume they know we love them, so we rarely say those words. There are no promises of tomorrow. Life is precious. Georgiann Markopoulos passed away at the age of 67. Thank you for all the love and support and bringing so much joy to my life. I will miss you my friend….
