Dave H, Gordie's third son was Murray. He wasn't as good a hockey player, but he became a doctor instead. I saw Marty and Mark play in the state championships at Dee Stadium in the mid 60s. I don't recall what age level they were in, but they both played on the same team. They were probably accompanied by Coleen Howe as Mr. Howe was still busy playing with the Wings. I also saw Gordie play baseball with current and retired Wings in a game at Southfield High School in the late 50s. Gordie hit a ball onto 10 Mile Road, which made it about 450 feet on the fly.
