WWE star Natalya has released a statement on the passing of her father Jim Neidhart in which she vows to keep The Anvil's memory alive.

Natalya tweeted the following statement: 

I can't put into words how hard it is going to be for myself and our family to have to say goodbye to my dad. He meant the world to us, and nothing will ever replace the special times we shared together as a family. My dad was always a fighter and an incredibly special person. There was no one like him! I’m just gonna miss him so much. We are going to hold all of the moments we had with him close to our hearts forever and never let them go. I promise to keep your memory alive. We love you so much, Daddy!

On behalf of my entire family, we would also like to personally thank everyone for the outpouring of thoughts and prayers. It’s meant so much to us.

As we previously reported, Anvil was rushed to a hospital this morning after suffering a seizure and hitting his head while falling down. He was 63-years-old. 

RIP.
