Goodbye to a True Hero
We regret to report that the Woolwich hockey community has lost a hero today. From the Strength With Friends Facebook Page: "It is with sadness that we must announce the passing of a true hero. At 5:10 this morning Austin's Journey came to an abrupt end at Sick Kids in Toronto. On Thursday he was surrounded by many people who loved him as he fought all the way. His final words were "I love you guys!"

The Facebook Page (https://www.facebook.com/StrengthWithFriendsAustinsJourney) will carry on as a tribute to his life and the family would appreciate posts of memories and photos of Austin. Make sure you like and share the page to show the world what an amazing young man Austin was!

Austin RIP May 30th, 2000 - February 7th, 2014.
