In Memory of Ed O'Donnell
Dave Aiello wrote, "Over on AAHArefs, I posted news that Ed O'Donnell died as a result of a heart attack he sustained while officiating a high school hockey game on Friday in Pennsauken, NJ. He was 45 years old and is survived by a wife and three school-aged children."
"This is the third death of a well known, respected ice hockey official in New Jersey in the past 12 months. Two of the deaths were of men in their mid-40s who were very physically active."
"The article that we posted on AAHArefs was the first, and so far only, article on the web that fully reports the tragedy that befell Ed. We are grateful that a couple of websites that cover New Jersey high school hockey have linked to it. It's important that players, coaches, and fans of the sport learn about this loss."
