Johnny Gaudreau's sister cancels her wedding as family releases heartbreaking statement
The tragic death of Johnny Gaudreau and his brother Matthew Gaudreau has sent shockwaves through the community.
We're talking about two young men in the prime of their lives, with wonderful families, who were also about to attend their little sister's wedding.
It's truly heartbreaking.
Sadly, it comes as no surprise that we've just learned that Johnny Gaudreau's sister's wedding has been canceled after the NHL star and his brother, Matthew Gaudreau, were struck by an alleged drunk driver.
Katie Gaudreau and her fiancé, Devin Joyce, have canceled their Friday wedding at St. Mary Parish in Gloucester City, New Jersey, following the tragedy that occurred last night.
We are still at a loss for words.
Johnny Gaudreau's Family Speaks Out Publicly
I believe people have generally done well to give the Gaudreau family the space they need to process this terrible shock, but they have now come forward with a brief message.
Here is the message shared by Jim Gaudreau:
«Last night, we lost two husbands, two fathers, two sons, two brothers, two sons-in-law, two uncles, two cousins, two family members, two teammates, two friends, but above all, two extraordinary human beings.
We want everyone to know that we receive your messages of love and support and that we appreciate your thoughts and prayers. We ask that you continue to respect our privacy during this very difficult period of mourning. From all of our families and from the bottom of our hearts (the Gaudreau, Morris, Korbitz, Venello, and Joyce families).»
- Jim Gaudreau
We cannot imagine even 1% of the immense pain they must all be feeling right now. It's inhumane.
