Would be a 50/50 chance of getting a QO if he did go however. Jim Herd doing an interview with Conrad Thompson next week (poor sod) so perhaps he'll give us some hints about his health.

alt obits guy 3,371 Posted November 7, 2020 Twitter reporting the death of Teijo Khan (Thomas Leroy Kasat), who mostly worked in the territories from the mid-1980s to the early 90s. Khan apparently died in April, but it's only being reported now. Wikiwand picked up on it and updated his biography to indicate he's now deceased. https://www.wikiwand.com/en/Teijo_Khan 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
