Mn Hockey lost a good friend

Post by greybeard58 »

Today Bill Gable of Isanti passed away from Brain Cancer. Bill was on the Mn Hockey Board as V.P. Tournaments until he started his battle with cancer in late 2008, he resigned his position as the battle at that time was getting the better of him. In the summer of 2009 his cancer went into remission and still wanting to be involved with youth hockey rejoined the District 10 Board as the invitational tournament coordinator. Unfortunately his cancer returned with a vengeance this past spring.

Arrangements are pending and as more information becomes available I will post.

There is another Harley rider in heaven.

Prayers for his family and friends and god bless him for all that he has done for youth hockey players. Brain tumor is an extremely tough way to go, hopefully he is at peace and pain free now. God Bless.
