That was his passion and he did a lot of good in their lives. That's really his legacy.
I'll also note that he changed my life and Emmett's, as I was pretty hesitant to embrace all the work and responsibility that comes with joining a tournament team when Emmett was a wee bit of 8 years old.

Maria, that's amazing. Hec is right, he left a wonderful legacy with those kids.
That is so sweet. Kids can be so wonderful to the people they love.

Maria, I'm so sorry about ... everything, and especially about the horrible timing.
He's a young man of 18 now who is playing in the Ontario junior hockey league. He should be a cocky little ass but he's one of the best young men I know.
