Goderich's most famous hockey player passed away yesterday.
Larry Jeffrey was 81. He began his NHL career with the Detroit Red Wings and also played for the Toronto Maple Leafs and New York Rangers before retiring in 1969.
Goderich Mayor, John Grace, says everyone on the community was touched in some way by Larry Jeffrey.
“Everyone in our community was touched in some way by Larry Jeffrey and we've lost, I guess, our hockey hero. There is nobody in the community that didn't know Larry and he really was a true icon in Goderich.”
