At 12:10 p.m. on Saturday, the Larsen Skating Rink was silent, as Addie McDuffee dropped a puck onto the ice, kicking off the “I Like Mike†hockey tournament fundraiser, in memory of Precinct One Councilor Mike McDuffee. McDuffee’s 4-year-old granddaughter, Addie, was assigned the task that initiated the tournament which was made up of four hockey teams, all fittingly named according to the full life that McDuffee lived; “The Gumpasâ€, named after what his grandchildren called him, “The Joeysâ€, the nickname that McDuffee had for his loving wife, Joanne McDuffee, “The Barn Boys,†in honor of his group of close friends that gathered regularly, and the “Tough McDuff’s,†after the name he had given his immediate family when they were faced with a challenge. Hockey players of all ages came out to play in support of the fundraiser which was sponsored by: Paul Marks Company, Biggio Insurance, Senator Joe Boncore, Speaker Bob DeLeo, Ed Cash, Cafco Construction Management, Winthrop Pro Shop, Renewable Waste Solutions, Corolla Roofing, Letterie’s Italian Market, DiPiero and Brown Construction, Belle Isle Seafood, Dave’s Refrigeration, the Barn Boys, Inc., Sal Tiano and Family, the Guys from the Blue Room Open, Custom Metals Mass., Ed McCabe and Family, George Barker Sr. and Honan Sign Company.
