Jesse White, son of legendary pro wrestler Vader, who passed away at age 63 this past Monday, recently spoke with the folks at TMZ for a brief interview.
During the discussion, Jesse mentioned Steve Austin, Mick Foley and Diamond Dallas Page as wrestlers who reached out to the White family while Vader was dealing with his health issues. However, he gave a special "thank you" to WWE Hall Of Famer Sting, who he claimed was a constant source of support for Vader over the past couple of months.
"Sting has been a huge blessing not only as of recent but probably I wanna say for the last ten months to a year in my father's life as well as mine," said Jesse. "I've been blessed and fortunate enough to witness that between the two of them as well as develop my relationship with Sting. You know my father was a God-fearing man and so is Sting so they would sit down and read The Bible together and go over The Bible, just talk about good time stories. So yeah, Sting's been a huge blessing throughout this process."
Jesse continued, "It's been overwhelming with how much love and support stories and cool pictures I've encountered and I came to the realization that I need to figure out a way to capture these and they're coming from anywhere and everywhere. I put together an email specifically it's vader.leonwhite@gmail. I want any and all fans who have any unique photos, rare photos, stories they wanna type up anything they want to add please email there. Me and my family, we're going to be going through them dissecting them."
