Drew was a great teammate and very passionate about our hockey brotherhood. I enjoyed playing hockey with and against Drew.
He was a great sportsman. Gave me a hard time on the ice, but a great guy off the ice.
His smile and laugh will be missed by many in the hockey community.

My Brother Drew,
I will forever miss you. I know you are at peace now. I saw the struggles, the pain, the grace. You have touched the hearts of so many. I will forever be grateful that God chose me to be your sister. I will cherish the memories. I am so glad for the time we spent together the last few years. My life will be different moving forward. i will never take for granted the gifts of a simple sunset, a smile from a friend, or the sound of laughter. You were so funny. It was so...
