A blessing is a circle of light drawn around a person to protect, heal and strengthen. Thinking of the families affected by the #Humboldt bus crash in Sask this past weekend. 15 young lives taken, 14 survivors. #humboldtbroncos

A popular quilting store in Saskatchewan has asked for 200 quilts to pass on to survivors, relatives, firemen, ambulance, police and others that had direct involvement with the very unfortunate accident that occurred on April 6, 2018, in rural Saskatchewan. There were 29 hockey players/staff on the bus which was hit as they were on their way to a playoff game. Instantly 15 were killed and sadly the only female on the bus passed today. She was the teams, athletic therapist.

The request was to make a quilt of a certain dimension and include the colours of the Humboldt Broncos colours. We put together materials from our stash and came up with this quilt top. Someone will love it...

I've started one on my own and will post a picture later. My guess is they will get over 1,000 quilts. We are a very close community in the quilting world and many will help out.

A GoFundMe page has been set up and over $9 million Canadian has been raised to date.

The Fairmont Hotel Macdonald illuminated in the colour of the Humboldt Broncos. A poignant reminder of the tragedy one year ago.

Across Canada hockey sticks are being left on porches to show support for the grieving families of the young people lost in the terrible bus crash that took the lives of 16 people - most of them teenage members of the Humbolt Broncos junior hockey team. One of the most poignant symbols I've seen was on a rainy night on Parliament Hill in Ottawa, where I saw this stick leaning on the "porch" of this venerated and picturesque house of government - Canada's Parliament building. #humboldstrong | #photodujour #dustinabbott #photography #canon #5dmarkiv #sigma #1424ART

One of the staff thought it would be great to show our support by making the hashtag sign as well. It was incorporated into most of the shots that I ended up taking the rest of the day. Here are some of the staff members both military and civilian at 33 CF Health Services CFB Kingston wearing their jerseys in support for Humboldt. #jerseysforhumboldt

Far away someone’s ♥️ is broken yet it’s hard to escape their sorrow when today we are all connected in some way through social@media and sometimes maybe even more than you first think. My husband and son work in Saskatchewan not very far from where the Broncos bus accident happened and close to Humboldt. He first heard of the accident late Friday night when a fella from work called him up.

The next morning he told me what had happened and recollected how on his drive to the airport the day before the accident his driver had talked with him about watching the last Broncos game that went into triple time.

It wasn’t until his return back to camp this past Tuesday that he realized just how so many were effected by this tragedy including many at his work.

It’s easy to forget for some and for some they will never forget. Our deepest condolences and prayers to everyone affected by this terrible tragedy.♥️The Belanger family
