Living life, best that I can with my cat Simon. Semi-retired from a long career in health care. Proud Canadian. 🇨🇦 she/her 🌈 friendly. Will automatically block if you DM! No fooling about the automatically blocking if you DM!

I met Ken Dryden when he came out to support his parents, Murray & Margaret Dryden, who had raised millions of $$$ for Sleeping Children Around the World, an NFP providing bed kits for kids. It’s not hard to understand why Ken Dryden was such a good person. The apple doesn’t fall far from the tree.

Ken Dryden was the antithesis of everything Don Cherry stood for. And unlike Cherry, he actually won at the highest levels. He was an intellectual, an author, a politician. I was lucky enough to meet him in 2006. Unlike Gretzky, he never sold his country out. RIP. A true icon who was one of a kind.

Thanks for all the new followers! So far, this is a calm place compared to the place I shall not name that I happily left due to the toxicity and chaos. Hopefully, we can maintain some civility here and help one another through these unsettled times. 🩷
