Brooks hockey teams raise funds for Druar family
Brooks, AB – The sudden death of Redcliff’s Dexter Druar has communities across the province showing their support for the Druar family.
Cities and towns throughout Alberta have been hosting fundraisers and making donations to alleviate some of the financial burden for Dexter’s funeral costs.
One community that stepped up was Brooks, as the Brooks Minor Hockey Novice and Timbits teams hosted a fundraiser this afternoon.
“This family is hurt,” explained Brooks hockey mom Tara Irwin. “They’re going through a really hard time right now and we don’t know them, so we can’t physically hug them. This is our hug.”
