November 21, 2005 Observer Newsletter: Death of Eddie Guerrero

Eddy Guerrero was a wonderful human being.

It's very easy to write this, becomes everyone knows it's true. It's only unfortunate that it takes something like this to let everyone know. Pray for his family, and his close friends who were really his second family, but also pray for the business he loved that somehow, this death will not be in vain.

He was also very much human. That was what made him so endearing to those around him, and connect so strongly to those who didn’t even know him and still felt like they had lost a good friend. And in its own way, that is what also led to his tragic demise.

It is probably fitting that the last words Edouardo Gory Guerrero spoke, were to his wife and childhood sweetheart Vickie, telling her that he loved her, at 2:30 a.m. late Saturday night.

He was a good enough high school wrestler to get a scholarship to wrestle at New Mexico State University for one year, but soon found himself the newest Guerrero pro wrestling star across the border in Ciudad Juarez.
