Tim Horton
Born: Cochrane, Ontario
January 12, 1930
Some
coffee fanatics may not be aware that before
becoming a successful donut entrepreneur, Tim Horton was
an exceptionally talented hockey player. He played an
amazing twenty-four seasons in the NHL with the Toronto
Maple Leafs, New York Rangers, Pittsburgh Penguins and
Buffalo Sabres; winning 4 Stanley Cups and appearing in
7 NHL All-Star games. Even though he was a celebrity,
Tim never forgot his roots. He would frequently return
to Cochrane during the off season. "Brother Love" is
proud to help with fundraising for the new Tim Horton
Events Centre. Our "Reunion" CD sells for $10 and $5
from each sale goes to the Centre. The picture below
shows Tim presenting MVP awards at the Cochrane Minor
Hockey banquet in 1961. Pictured from left to right are:
Gary Pearce, Mark Calaiezzi, Albert Calaiezzi and Tim
Horton. Seated is Roger Lacroix. |
