[edit] DEATH

Has her death been confirmed yet? I do see it on google, but I don't see it anywhere official yet? Sephiroth storm (talk) 16:47, 11 May 2008 (UTC)

Note: The CAC was informed today that Nellya Burres-Baughman, who wrestled as Judy Grable, died at approximately 2:40 this morning [May 8]. Grable began her career in 1938 and was a top wrestler on the women's wrestling scene for many years. It was in a tournament in 1956 that, it is claimed, where Fabulous Moolah defeated Judy Grable to win the Women's Title that Moolah would go on to hold for many years. We have no more details at this time. The CAC sends our condolences to the family and friends of Judy Grable.

--Susan Nunes 11 May 2008. This was from the Cauliflower Alley Club and has been reported on several wrestling sites on the net. Nothing so far from AP or the NYT, but sometimes they are behind the curve, as they were with Affirmed's owner Louis Wolfson.
