Mūžībā devies pazīstamais Nacionālās hokeja līgas (NHL) kluba Edmontonas "Oilers" līdzjutējs Džoijs Moss, kurš sirga ar Dauna sindromu, vēsta vienība.
Miris pazīstamais "Oilers" fans, kurš sirga ar Dauna sindromu
Moss mira 57 gadu vecumā.
Moss ar Dauna sindromu piedzima 1963. gadā. 1984. gadā viņš sāka regulāri parādīties "Oilers" ģērbtuvēs, jo leģendārais kanādiešu uzbrucējs Veins Greckis tikās ar Džoija vecāko māsu Vikiju.
Pateicoties Greckim, Moss pievienojās kluba personālam 1986. gadā.
The #Oilers organization is extremely saddened by the passing of our dear friend & colleague, the legendary Joey Moss.

Once an Oiler, always an Oiler.
RIP, Joey. ?? pic.twitter.com/KJSkN9oO9W
Viņš veica vairākus pienākumus "Oilers" ģērbtuvē un spēļu laikā uzmundrināja līdzjutējus mājas spēļu arēnā, kļūstot par ļoti iecienītu personu gan līdzjutēju, gan spēlētāju vidū.
2012. gadā Moss saņēma karalienes Elizabetes II jubilejas medaļu, bet 2015. gadā tika uzņemts Albertas provinces slavas zālē. Viņam par godu tika nosaukts arī draudzības turnīrs, kas katru gadu tiek rīkots "Oilers" treniņnometnes laikā.
"Viņa dzīvesprieks iedvesmoja ikvienu, kuram laimējās viņu satikt. Mums viņa pietrūks, bet mēs nekad viņu neaizmirsīsim," teica Greckis.

Joey Moss was a remarkable human. His love for the rink and hockey community was unmatched. He was the epitome of Canadian values and there is no one that sang our anthem louder or prouder. We’ll miss you, Joey. - Tom Renney & the Hockey Canada Family#RIPJoeyMoss pic.twitter.com/ExT7EObk8D

There was nothing better than coming off the ice after a huge win to a Joey Moss high five on the bench. His energy and passion for the game were infectious and made you want to come to the rink everyday. He truly was a legend and will be greatly missed. #RIPJoeyMoss #Legend pic.twitter.com/CBpiuwyyCX
