    Talk about a BAD Day

    It is with a heavy heart that I am making this statement. This morning my family experienced the tragic loss of my father, Dick and mother, Joan. My Dad had been ill and died of a heart attack in the hospital and my Mom, less than an hour later had a sudden heart attack and passed away. They say you can die of a broken heart and I believe it. I would like to honor my parents for all that they did throughout my and my brothers’ and sister’s lives. My parents were always there for their children, from the days my Dad coached us as kids and my Mom would work the concession stands, through to this morning. The most important part of their 56 years of marriage was providing opportunities to their children. They were incredible parents and Grandparents and my family and I will miss them both. On behalf of me and the entire Flutie family, I would like to thank you all for your well wishes and prayers during this difficult time.

              The parents of football great Doug Flutie died of heart attacks within an hour of each other Thursday morning after 56 years of marriage, the retired quarterback announced in a heart-wrenching message on Facebook.
              <figure id="attachment_9948112" class="wp-caption alignright">Modal Trigger<figcaption class="wp-caption-text">Doug Flutie</figcaption></figure> “It is with a heavy heart that I am making this statement,” Flutie wrote. “This morning my family experienced the tragic loss of my father, Dick, and mother, Joan. My Dad had been ill and died of a heart attack in the hospital, and my Mom less than an hour later had a sudden heart attack and passed away.
              “They say you can die of a broken heart and I believe it.”
              Flutie authored one of the greatest plays in college football history in 1984 when his Hail Mary touchdown — known simple as “The Pass” — led Boston College over powerhouse Miami. He went on to a storied career in the Canadian Football League as well as several stints in the NFL.
              “My parents were always there for their children, from the days my Dad coached us as kids and my Mom would work the concession stands, through to this morning,” Flutie wrote. “They were incredible parents and Grandparents and my family and I will miss them both.”

                  Sad to hear.

                  I always liked Flutie.

                  And he was one hell of an extra point drop kicker.
