In the ten months since, in addition to receiving “a lot of support” from her community, Meredith detailed how she’s found joy and healing in being able to share the kind of father Johnny was to their children Noa, 2, Johnny, 14 months—and how much he’d love their 2-month-old son Carter, who she welcomed seven months after his passing.
“The hockey world, the sports world, they showed up for us, too,” she wrote. “To see people go from just knowing about ‘Johnny Hockey,’ to hearing about how amazing of a father you were, of a person you were? I know that’s what would have mattered to you. You never cared if someone thought you were a good or bad player, you just wanted them to know you as John, Noa and Johnny’s dad.”
Meredith added, “You were perfect. I don’t know how you could have been better.”
She’s also loved seeing the ways her children are taking after their father.
