The description for the GoFundMe, written by Diamond Dallas Page, explains how the money will be used to help Ice Train\’s family. The two had a 30-year friendship, and now DDP wants to make sure that Harold Hogue\’s family is taken care of to the best of his ability.
Ice Train was born with congenital heart disease, so he couldn\’t get insurance. Due to this, his family is in a terrible circumstance right now.
Harold Hogue aka \”Ice Train\” aka \”Smooth\” (to me he was always \”H\”) was a warrior and one of the kindest people I’ve ever known. Our 30 year relationship was filled with laughter & brotherhood. We were always there for each other.
Our families are one family.
Harold was born with a congenital heart disease and passed away unexpectedly on January 23, 2024. Because of his condition, he was unable to get life insurance, leaving his wife Tiana and his 7 kids too soon…without their rock, and their primary provider.
Please consider donating in honor of Harold, to help support his family after losing such a great husband, father, and friend. I love you H – DDP.
