    John and I were away from home when the bus crash involving the Humboldt Broncos hockey team / staff occurred on April 6 2018. Some of the guests we were with had a strong connection to the town and team. Today I chose to put Stabilo water soluable pencil / Art Graf Water Soluble Tailors Chalk to work as I tried to capture former Humboldt Broncos goalstender, Jacob Wassermann, now a member of Canada’s Paralympic team. Jacob will compete in rowing. He was among 13 survivors of a crash that took the lives of 16 o April 6.Go Jacob!Source used for sketch: THE CANADIAN PRESS FILE PHOTOx.com/devin_heroux/status/1828922632005189681?s=46 ...

    John and I were away from home when the bus crash involving the Humboldt Broncos hockey team / staff occurred on April 6 2018. Some of the guests we were with had a strong connection to the town and team. Today I chose to put Stabilo water soluable pencil / Art Graf Water Soluble Tailors Chalk to work as I tried to capture former Humboldt Broncos goalstender, Jacob Wassermann, now a member of Canada’s Paralympic team. Jacob will compete in rowing. He was among 13 survivors of a crash that took the lives of 16 o April 6.Go Jacob!Source used for sketch: THE CANADIAN PRESS FILE PHOTOx.com/devin_heroux/status/1828922632005189681?s=46 ...
