Grant, your Mom is a dear friend of my sister. She spoke so highly of you and even shared the picture of Coach Joel holding the Stanley Cup and you smiling. I know of no one else who deserved to score a private visit with the cup! AND now you have your own version of winning the Cup, you are in Heaven! What a magnificent star you will be for your Mom!!
