I met Mr. and Mrs. O as they were fondly known to us as, through my older brother Michael and my parents Len and Vicki when I was a child. Part of my extended hockey family, I never truly appreciated what that was until I was much older and had my own hockey family. Hours spent at the rink, at socials, in hotels, on buses, for many months, season after season for years. The relationships forged are lifelong!
Mr. O was one of the kindest persons I have known. As I got older, I enjoyed teasing him back by calling him the local Burt Reynolds. Always smiling, he and Mrs. O remain an important part of my folks social circle even now. Dearly loved, he will be greatly missed. My sincerest condolences to Mrs. O and the rest of the family, rest in peace Mr. O
