A visitation was held for Tanya Wiebe Saturday night, with community members lining Talbot Street in the East Elgin town to pay their respects, and to show love for her hockey playing son.

The Aylmer Flames hockey organization asked past and present players to bring hockey sticks and tap them to salute Wiebe’s son Chase and the family as they exited the visitation.
