Cant believe it’s the last game for the great #PatFoley. Will always be the soundtrack of hockey to me. Thank you

In absolute shock & disbelief over the the passing of Taylor Hawkins. I’ve always had so much admiration for him. Amazing drummer & a gem of a guy who was always fun to be around. I’m absolutely gutted…my deepest condolences to his bandmates & family 😥🙏 #RIPTaylorHawkins

[Stephen Thomas Erlewine @sterlewine]

Taylor Hawkins might’ve been the only drummer alive who could support Dave Grohl and not make you wish Grohl was sitting behind the kit.

[Brad Peterson @bsp017]

So sad to hear of Taylor Hawkins passing, one the best. Loved seeing him perform. He will be missed #RIPTaylorHawkins

Please consider supporting 11-year-old Parker Dickerson, who lost both his parents to cancer in recent years, including our beloved colleague Jeff Dickerson, who died yesterday of complications from colon cancer at age 44.

Thank you, @packers. How huge - $25,000 to the Parker Dickerson Fund. 🙏

[Laurence Holmes @LaurenceWHolmes]

There are so many wonderful things to say about Jeff Dickerson. He wasn’t just liked-he was admired.

Even while going through Cancer, he set up a scholarship in the name of our friend Vaughn McClure, who passed away last year.

That’s who he was. Incredible human!

[Jason Wilde @jasonjwilde]

Listened to @espn1000’s tribute to @DickersonESPN and was so proud of @WaddleandSilvy, @TWaddle87, @CarmenDeFalco, @fred_huebner et al. as they beautifully honored JD. Even managed not to cry … ‘til Ralph called.

Please support Parker via JD’s @GoFundMe: https://t.co/OwAPiONC1O

So sad for the passing of Jeff Dickerson. One of the best in the business, always loved hearing him on the radio, even as a packer fan I enjoyed his reporting. #RIPJD

[Rob Demovsky @RobDemovsky]

Thanks @SeifertESPN for sharing with everyone what many of us were fortunate to experience. You did him — and all of us — proud. Our little corner of the world was better because Jeff Dickerson was in it and will never be as good without him.

[Brett Favre @BrettFavre]

We lost a larger than life legend in John Madden. My career was narrated by “Coach”, one of the best in the game.

I’ll always remember our pre-game mtgs, when we laughed & talked about anything but football. I’ll miss my dear friend.

Love & prayers to Virginia & the family.

Statement from the Chicago Bears on the passing of Jeff Dickerson:

[Jeff Joniak @JeffJoniak]

Eternally optimistic, gracious, humble, kind, and a pro, Jeff Dickerson was loved by everyone. Always smiling, always hopeful. He helped me through some tough times, and I am saddened about our loss. Condolences to his son Parker and his family. Much love JD. @DickersonESPN

[Adam Schefter @AdamSchefter]

Unspeakably sad: Jeff Dickerson, a fixture at ESPN and in the Chicago sports market for two decades, died Tuesday of complications from colon cancer. He was 44. Thoughts with his 11-year-old son Parker, who now has lost both his parents to cancer.
