• Hockey was such a part of my life, as well as my family’s, that I knew we were all going to miss it.  For the first few weeks my son was in tears sobbing, ‘I miss you being a Red Wing daddy.’  I didn’t know what to say so we just cried together.  Nobody prepares you for that kind of stuff.

• I've covered a lot of ground geographically and emotionally and for years I lost my connection with my family.

When you smile you get a smile back, unconditionally.

• Growing up in my family meant ambushes on your birthday, crossbows for Christmas, and games of dodge ball where the balls were occasionally rigged to explode. It also meant learning how to work your way out of a wide variety of death traps. Failure to get loose on your own could lead to missing dinner, or worse, being forced to admit that you missed dinner because your baby sister had tied you to the couch. Again.

• I have had a fairly long life, above all a very happy one, and I think that I shall be remembered with some regrets and perhaps leave some reputation behind me. What more could I ask? The events in which I am involved will probably save me from the troubles of old age. I shall die in full possession of my faculties, and that is another advantage that I should count among those that I have enjoyed. If I have any distressing thoughts, it is of not having done more for my family; to be unable to give either to them or to you any token of my affection and my gratitude is to be poor indeed.
