The widow of NHL star Johnny Gaudreau is expecting the couple’s third child, she announced during a eulogy at a memorial service for the brothers on Monday.
Family, friends, and members of the hockey community gathered on Monday St. Mary Magdalen Catholic Church in Media, Pennsylvania to remember both Johnny and his brother Matthew, who were killed by a suspected drunk driver late last month.
Johnny’s widow, Meredith, and Matthew’s widow, Madeline, both delivered emotional eulogies.
Madeline, who is also pregnant with her and Matthew’s first child, spoke first and shared the story of how they met and how he was a family man.
“Anyone that knows Matty knows that he was born to be a dad,” Madeline said. “The moment we found out about our son Tripp, it consumed his every day. He was downloading apps, ordering books, finding the best diaper brand, making sure I had the best vitamins and asking for tips from John.”
