The tragic news was shared by his family through a GoFundMe page that Jacob "Turtle" Colyer, a friend and fellow wrestler, set up to help cover the cost of the funeral services.

According to Colyer, Lee drew his last breath on Wednesday, September 9, at his home and the GoFundMe was created to "give the Psycho Dwarf the best resting place possible."

"Puppet has put smiles on people's faces across the world with his hardcore attitude and lifestyle. He is a legend in the art of Midget Wrestling."
