She was 51 and succumbed to cancer.  I  feel real bad for him.  must be hard to deal with that and then get shipped off to a new place without your wish on the same day.  Just a rough week for him.

According to his dad, he's happy about the trade.

Boston needs to honor IT + Crowder big time on opening night. They deserve it. That's what we do.

I am sure there will be a big video tribute.  I expect one when Avery comes back as well.

thoughts to him and his family



say what you want, but he's a dang warrior

That really sucks. I am just a couple years younger than Jim and I can't imagine losing my mother.

Stuff like this sure cements just how true "there are more important things in life" statement is.

agreed. 

had to have been a royally screwed up day for Crowder no matter how the news of the trade was relayed to him

[Donoghus]

Awful stuff.

[Vino]

Losing your mom at his age is painful and will affect him the rest of his life. I know from personal experience. May she stay alive in his heart and rest in peace. Make her proud Jae!

[mmmmm]

Oh man!

That's so awful.   What a truly awful day that must have been.

In a sad way, I'm so glad that he and IT will still be teammates so they can lean on each other.

That is truly terrible.

I feel for you, Jae.

[Rosco917]

Always terrible to loose your mom.

My condolences to you. I lost my mom, as well—to cancer just two months ago. Totally sucks.
