Awesome! Thanks for posting this video... hadn't seen it.

Hubby and I met and posed for a photo with Mike Eruzione a few years ago at a Springfield (Massachusetts) Thunderbirds' hockey game. The T-Birds are the AHL farm team of the St. Louis Blues.

Super nice guy! A long, long line of people waited to meet him and pose for a picture. Mike was really patient and gave everybody ample time. A genuinely nice man.

Now if only I could find that photo... :-(

Ask St Anthony. Then when you find it you have to donate to his cause. In church you will always see a cash slot at his statue. He’ll help you find it

Thank you. I’ll do that. My mother always told me to ask St. Anthony when I needed to find something. It works for me (and my husband) most of the time. :-)

My mom always did the St. Anthony thing...I would say you’ll never find “it” if you don’t look for it.

As a western Canadian I have to say I’m glad the US won, I didn’t want to hear some self righteous crap about how awesome Canada is and how trash the US is. It’s not an attitude in this part of BC but I meant online etc. Now they can just suck eggs. It warms my cold hard heart.

“My mom always did the St. Anthony thing...I would say you’ll never find “it” if you don’t look for it.“

Of course you have to look for it. Did she tell you the other part of it? God helps those who help themselves. Well He does. And at Anthony goes to God with it. That’s how intercession works. Just like here. You ask your friends to pray for you

But that’s not the important thing

The importing is if you’ve got a selfie with Mike Eruzione you have to locate it

I have a picture of my father playing golf with Lee Holz. And I have a picture of a famous actor I took in 1980 when he was semi famous
