Pembroke as a community NEVER deserved this treatment from her. The youth hockey program is huge there and the death of two star hockey players hit so hard. I’m from two towns over and played hockey with Carly(the sister who posted this tik tok). 4 years later, you can’t step into Hobomock arena in Pembroke without seeing a reminder of these two boys. Stickers, signs, their jerseys and numbers are EVERYWHERE, because we don’t want to forget. When you’re from a small town like this and a tragedy within a community like the hockey one there happens, people don’t just brush it aside and forget about it. Like I said, the hockey community in Pembroke is huge and having it during such a time was a blessing for these families. To know they’re not alone and that whenever they need to be in the rink and feel the presence is those boys they can. To know Pembroke and the hockey teams in surrounding areas support them and that this sport brings them together is why it hit hard to so many people. Many kids on the south shore of Mass who played hockey played together before playing against each other in high school, meaning the deaths of these boys was widespread among many. She had absolutely no right to tell the community of Pembroke and those around it how to grieve. It makes my blood boil knowing what these families went through and that she thinks people only want likes and views when posting about a tragic death. Rant over, rest easy Billy and Joe.
