RIP Walter

Canada’s greatest ‘hockey dad’ passed away last evening.

I had the honour to meet him twice - extremely humble person, always willing to sign an autograph or pose for a picture.

RIP Walter Gretzky!

yeah... incredible person.
He was seated a few rows below us at a game once and he was signing autographs and doing pics at every break.

R.I.P. Walter
