Current IMPACT star and former UFC Champion Ken Shamrock revealed on Twitter Sunday morning that his father, Richard Kilpatrick passed away on Saturday.
He revealed his father’s passing when he responded to a fan that heard Shamrock pulled out of independent bookings because of his dad’s illness.
Shamrock also had revealed on Twitter back on January 14 that after his IMPACT show in Dallas, Texas he had to fly to Augusta because his dad was sent home on hospice.
On behalf of the staff of Wrestleview, we would like to send our sincerest condolences to Ken Shamrock and his family during this difficult time.
