RMHA Receives Donation from E.S. Fry Foundation
Earl S. (Tuffy) Fry – was a lifelong resident of Riverside Ontario. His commitment to RMHA began by going door to door canvassing for funds to build the old Riverside Recreation and Memorial Centre. Once the arena was built, Earl continued his dedication to RMHA by Coaching for 20 years in both the travel and House League Divisions.
Earl enjoyed many years as an Assistant to the legendary Mr. Al Perry in the Bantam Major Division which resulted in much successes in the league. Bob Parent, Joel Quenneville, Mark Renaud and Ron Friest are just a few of the players Earl had the pleasure of Coaching during his travel days.
Just as enjoyable was the time Earl spent with Don (Maz) Ingersoll coaching in the Midget House League Division in his later years at RMHA. The E.S. Fry foundation wishes to assist RMHA families and alleviate some of the financial strain a family may incur for a player to step up from House League to play in the travel division. Earl would love to see these kids reach their highest potential on the ice!
RMHA Thanks Ian Fry for coordinating this donation to our association.
