My soon to be Father-in-law passed away last week. Met him through my fiance, and he was the hugest, brokest, season ticket having Coyote hockey sports fan I have ever come across.
He was buried with Military Honors, he was in the Navy during Vietnam, and sold a method of Helicopters delivering mail to the ships because the mail kept falling in the ocean. They further used this method in other aspects.
He loved the Coyotes and all though he didn't drink, he would always offer to buy me beers at the game as an enticement to go with him.
He had been suffering from M.S. since I have known him. Could barely walk when I met him , but refused the wheel chair.
Then other complications, etc, put him in the wheel chair, he still went to games. Luke.
Took my nephew (my side of the family) to countless games.
Raise your beer or what ever your drinking, to a true family man and Coyotes fan.

Sounds like a good man. But he is happier now.

Enjoy your peace, Luke; you've earned it.
