Gordie Howe an animal on the ice, a saint off it

Detroit Red Wings' Gordie Howe is pictured in action against the Toronto Maple Leafs' Allan Stanley in this undated handout photo. Howe, the man forever known as "Mr. Hockey," died June 10 at age 88.

An amazing hockey player he may have been, but Gordie Howe’s greatest legacy will be that he was an even better human being, one who touched the lives of all of us and our families.
