Jack's Blacksmith Shop
Church Street Chatham, NB, Canada

Thought I would give my condolence’s to Laurie’s family and friends on this page I made for my Dad..Laurie was a great friend ..many stories to many to tell,.Laurie was by far one of Jacks favorites to enter the shop.His newspaper clips made the wall many a timePretty sure Stephen gave most of them to Laurie at his 60th... He should of made the NHL Jack always would sayback when Laurie played for the Ironmen they would bring in a pair of Tacks and a pair of Bauer’s .....Dad would pop the rivets off the Tacks and put the Tuck blades on the Bauer bootsMany years later and Tuck still the best steel Jack and Laurie knew lol.Laurie spoke very highly of Jack and Jack felt the same of Laurie.Laurie said no one could put an edge on a blade like ole Jack.I am sure in my heart they are both reunite up above us.Gone but never ever forgotten rest in peace Laurie Gregan See more

This is a picture that was buried under other clips on the wall...Dad had John Hawkes name under it... I asked John and he got Bobby to sign it when he was at college in Boston...John had told me his team went on the Ice for a practise with the Bruins and he wore a Habs Jersey...That would be John..said they weren't impressed haha...RIP John

Dad put this up in the shop 28 years ago....He told the story many of a time of meeting Gordie in the late 50's or early 60's and saying how nice of a gentleman he was.....talk to him during warm ups by the boards and gave Jack an autograph and got a few of his team mates to come over too.... RIP Mr Hockey
