The Blackhawks are my favorite team, so therefore, I must wear 35 to honor him, right?
Nope, he made my number famous.
Anyway, as a kid, goalies wore 1 or 30. I wanted to stand out, so I wore 35 two years before Tony O did...
As usual in this game called life, things happen and we don't always understand why- that's true here as well.
and now the story behind 35.
My younger sister Cindy was born with one kidney. In 1969, she became one of the first kidney transplant patients in America, and we were given 4 more years with her until she passed away on 10.25.73.
Becky Klem was one of the few people in this world who truly understood (and put up with) me. She blessed me with two wonderful daughters. Her birthday is 7.28.55
Speaking of those two daughters, Rach's birthday is 4.13 and Sarah's 2.16. Combine those numbers and see what you get.
Yep, when I pull on a sweater to play, I am honoring these women who are very important to me. You also know the secret of the CBRS on the back of my mask.
