The Untold Story Behind the Woman Who Shaped Josh Manson’s Journey to the NHL
She looked at me and said, “Don’t cry. I’ve made it this far and haven’t cried yet.”
She was really, really strong. All the way.
I tried to call her every day that year, and she would muster up the strength to talk and to speak with all my siblings and family. She made me feel safe. She was fighting for herself, but also for everyone around her. That’s just who she was. That’s my mom.
I see parts of her in me more and more every day. She’s there in the way my wife, Julie, and I raise our daughters. She’s there in how I approach my career. She’s there in how I enjoy every single day. She believed in living life to the fullest, in feeling. And I’ll always have that as a part of me, too.
