John, thanks for being more than a "sports guy", allowing us to see your humanity while helping a worthy cause. Don't ever leave that trait behind.

Jphn, all else pales when it comes to kids doesn't it? Circumatances similar to Shoe's have struck our family over the years along wth the "what if" question as well. I can't imagine anyone reading this column without glassey eyes. Kudo's to you for writing it and keeping Shoe's tradiotion alive.

John, I had forgotten about Shoe. Choked me up, as did the past articles.

I’m sure he’s smiling at all the donated Lego sets, the people surviving because of his organ donations, and because of your columns, John.

Thank you for this!

Holy Cow, John!! Has it been a year already? Last year, I freaked out for 5 second when I got the email that the item had been delivered but nothing was on my doorstep. Quickly, I realized the lego set had been delivered. Thank you for reminding all of us of Jack's legacy!!

John, thanks (again) for highlighting the most important things. What a great person Shoe was—an example for everyone. I’m headed for Amazon and Lego land right now!

How cannot this real story touch our hearts! Touching hearts of kids and families in this crazy world of ME. We are preparing to start another season of flag football this fall here in Northwest Vancouver. It attracts over 200 kids that demonstrate that each child is so important no matter their skill level. I wish I could share more, it will take more space as other feedback is important. I have a part of this outreach for many years and it is special.
