Erin Pettapiece - The Strongest Gryphon
The Minor Atom AAA Gryphons would like to share a story about the strongest and toughest Gryphon ever.

Erin Pettapiece is a proud member of our Gryphon family. She faithfully attends games with her husband Jay and daughter Carleigh, enthusiastically cheering on her son Finn and his teammates. Erin is one of those hockey parents who always has a smile on her face and something positive to say regardless of what the scoreboard says. 

 

Erin defeated breast cancer almost 4 years ago, but was recently given some bad news. Doctors discovered something developing on her brain, and she recently underwent surgery to have suspicions lesions removed.

 

Through all of this, Erin has had an amazing attitude. She knows she is strong enough to overcome whatever challenge this new health scare will present.

 

Although the next several days will provide Erin and her health care providers with information that will determine the next steps, Erin’s friends and family have already begun various initiatives to support the Pettapieces. These initiatives include a gofundme page started by Erin’s friends at DB fitness.

 

The Minor Atom AAA Gryphons would like you to consider supporting the gofundme initiative that has been set up in Erin’s name. The link is provided below.

In the meantime, the Minor Atom AAAs will be #playin4erin, and we challenge the rest of our Gryphon teams to do the same.

 

Go Erin!

 

Go Gryphons!
