- William Moody's wife Dianne has passed away from cancer. Moody - better known
to wrestling fans as Paul Bearer -
was married to her for 30 years. "Many know that Dianne was a two time
breast cancer survivor; however her lasting issues from the invasive chemo
and radiation, and numerous other health problems took her from us. I was
blessed to have 30-years of marriage with her, and believe me, 30 years with
me would make anybody a saint. The Pringle/Moody Family will never be the
same as she was indeed the backbone for us all," he said in a statement.
