Matthew and Johnny Gaudreau’s heartbroken sister speaks out after NHL star, brother killed the day before her wedding
NY Post
Katie Gaudreau shared a moving tribute to her big brothers, Columbus Blue Jackets star Johnny Gaudreau and Matthew Gaudreau, after their tragic deaths when they were struck and killed by a suspected drunk driver while cycling in Salem County, N.J., last Thursday — the day before her wedding.
“To know these two was to love these two,” she wrote Monday on Instagram, including a photo of their family. “There are absolutely no words I have to express the bond my family shared.
“The entire world knows there would never have been a John without Matty or Matty without John. The absolute best big brothers a little girl could have asked for.
“This will never be a goodbye post because I will never stop saying your names and honoring you both. I’ll take the best care of mom, dad, Kristen, Mer, and Madeline, your babies.
Katie and her fiancé, hockey player Devin Joyce, canceled their wedding, which was set to take place in Gloucester City, N.J., on Friday, Aug.30, Page Six confirmed.
Johnny, 31, and Matthew, 29, were set to serve as groomsmen and their other sister, Kristen Venello, was going to be a maid of honor.
