Devastating News Hits The Brind'Amour Family
The Carolina Hurricanes announced the passing of Bob Brind'Amour, father of head coach Rod Brind'Amour.
«There isn't a person who met Bob who will ever forget him,» said Waddell. «Bob was a wonderful husband, father and grandfather who lit up every room he entered with passion, humor and energy.
He kept working as a pipe fitter in Campbell River well into Rod's NHL career and it's clear he passed that relentless work ethic down to his children.»
General Manager Don Waddell described Bob as a beloved figure known for his passion, humor, and work ethic.
Bob passed away surrounded by family in Campbell River, BC.
The Hurricanes organization mourns his loss and extends condolences to the Brind'Amour family.
