Today I received the dreaded letter today from the family of Ernie Laforce. I sent my TTM request to him in mid-September and unfortanutely he passed away on October 18th. While I never like receiving news from a family member that their loved one has passed away, I do appreciate them sending me a note back. I can pass on to other people the unfortanute news and spare the family from further receiving TTM requests.
For those of you unfamiliar with Ernie Laforce - I don't blame you. He played one NHL game for the Montreal Canadiens during the Original Six era. While his NHL career wasn't long, he had a long career with the Montreal Royals as a steady defenceman.
