In Editor Choice, Local

The Toronto Maple Leafs have reached out to the Kerin family following the loss of their son last week in a accident.

On December 2, 2020, 12-year-old Cormac Kerin was killed outside his home on the 7th Line of the Municipality of Port Hope while about to board a school bus.

His 10-year-old sister Shea was critically injured and airlifted to Sick Childrens Hospital in Toronto where she remains.

On Friday, December 11, Toronto Maple Leafs Captain John Tavares tweeted a message to the Kerin family and hockey community.

“My teammates and I extend our deepest condolences to the Kerin family for the loss of their son, Cormac – a big Maple Leafs fan.

We’re sending best wishes to She in her recovery. Our hearts go out to you and all of Northumberland.
We’re thinking of you.”
