It’s been almost a year and this is not any easier for me to handle. I don’t know how Meredith does it. I hope the organization continues to welcome her for as long as she wants.
My goodness that was a heartbreaking read.
I don’t know what sort of tears I was expecting but I was sobbing from line one. I can’t even imagine what she’s been through but i am so thankful she has the support system she does (and honestly the support system the whole family has is so strong)
You said I would cry, but I was like, “nah, I’ll be fine.”
I was, in fact, not fine.
I lost my parents when I was very young; I was probably Johnny Jr.’s age at the time John died when my mom died and around the age Noa was when my dad died. Every time I think about what happened it brings back my own past and I feel so glad that they have the kind of supportive family around them that I didn’t.
What a tragedy. And what a strong woman Meredith must be to be able to put her thoughts together like this. I can only hope that the entirety of the hockey world continues to remember Johnny Hockey and his legacy forever.
So much love in this article – Such a Loss – They will be okay
I was crying by the end of the article.
In the dictionary, under strength and perseverance, it says Meredith Gaudreau. How this woman can show the strength she has shown is simply astounding
I haven’t even read it and I’m tearing up. I may have to pass on reading this one.
I couldn’t get through it. Don’t know how she’s gets on each day. Why is the world so cruel sometimes?
I’m a newer hockey fan as of the last couple seasons but holy hell what tear jerker.
Oh okay I guess it’s time to ugly cry a little this afternoon.
