David and I moved here 14 years ago. We were hesitant to enroll Kyle into the "learn to skate" program. We ended up joining in and that was our opportunity to get to know the Hanson family.

If your children have any...

To the Hanson family from the Fuller family, our deepest sympathy & condolences go out to all of you. Gary will surely miss all the phone calls and emails from Neil trying to schedule refs; and of course we'll always remember all the fun times & fond memories in the rinks and the away tournaments as well. Very sorry for your loss, Neil will truly be missed by all. God Bless, Janet, Gary, Matt & Mike

Mr.Hanson you will be sorely missed by both myself and my family. I will never forget the days when you and my dad coached my younger brother, myself and many of my other lifelong friends over at chelmsford forum. My dad and uncles have told me all the stories of their time growing up with you in Bedford and how much of a true friend you were to the family. You will be missed.
