Third Year of Bob Probert Memorial Ride

It’s the third year that the late hockey player’s widow Dani Probert, has organized the event. Probert, a past enforcer for the Detroit Red Wings and Chicago Blackhawks, died in 2010 after suffering a heart attack on his boat in Lake St. Clair.

Since its inception, the memorial ride has raised more than $200,000 for the hospital. This year, Probert’s twins Jack and Declyn raised about $1,000 on their own by asking friends to donate to the ride instead of giving presents at their 13th birthday party.
