On October 18th, 2023, our world grew dim and our bright, vibrant, happy, sports loving little boy Lincoln, gained his wings.

To know Lincoln, was to Love Lincoln, because he radiated something so special, it was impossible not to fall endlessly in love with his infectious personality. He encompassed so many characteristics at the tender age of 7 that most of us will spend a lifetime trying to achieve. He was genuinely kind, deeply loving, and endlessly compassionate. Through his innocence and perspective, he vastly changed the way we seen the world, for the better.

One of Lincolns defining characteristics was his innate love and passion for Sports. Through that love of sport Lincoln gained the most beautiful friendships. He learned how to be confident, fearless and determined. He learned many life skills like teamwork, leadership, disciple and resilience. He recognized from the very beginning that there was no I in Team and he excelled at making moves on and off the ice that made everyone feel included. He was the epitome of sportsmanship, and we can only hope that through this initiative that many many children get to learn and experience the same.
