Chris Snow was told at the time of his diagnosis in June 2019 he had possibly less than a year to live
Chris Snow had planned a big party for Sunday to celebrate his wife Kelsie’s 40th birthday.
At the time of his death, he was 42. His heart, kidneys and liver were harvested so they could be donated. He was diagnosed with ALS in June, 2019, a fatal neurological disease that also claimed the lives of his father, two uncles and one cousin. For eight years, he worked under general manager Brad Treliving, who now holds the same job with the Toronto Maple Leafs. Treliving flew from Toronto to Calgary to be with Chris and Kelsie one day last week and will give a eulogy at his funeral. Those details have yet to be announced.
“Chris inspired us all as he faced the relentless battle with ALS head-on, refusing to let it define him or derail his spirit.” “Chris epitomized everything we hold dear in hockey … courage, commitment, resilience and selflessness,” the Flames’ provincial rival in Edmonton wrote on Sunday. “His tireless efforts to educate and make a meaningful difference around ALS treatment and support, while at the same time dealing with this horrible disease daily will undoubtedly make a difference in the lives of others.
“We will never replace a person like Chris; we simply pay tribute to him by moving forward with the same passion that he brought to his life each day.”
