The Genting Casino Coventry Blaze and Keeno’s family would like to say a heartfelt thank you to everyone who donated to our bucket collection or GoFundMe, set up in honour of Keeno.
The bucket collection at our home game vs. Cardiff Devils raised £1,160 and £7,370 was donated to the online GoFundMe. A small transaction fee was taken from each donation by the website, but the family were overwhelmed to receive £7,100.50 – making a total of £8,260.50 raised.
On behalf of Dayle’s Mum Kay, brother Jamie, Bobby (brother of Dayle’s Dad who passed away November 2023), sister Daryll wrote:
“Our family would like to send a huge thank you to the Coventry Blaze family, the wider hockey community, and to anyone else who generously donated to the GoFundMe page that was so kindly set up in honour of our beloved Dayle Keen, as well as the bucket donations from the Skydome.
“We are totally overwhelmed at the contributions made by you all, and for taking the time to make these contributions. While we are all still grieving our incomprehensible loss, we find comfort in knowing that Dayle had a profound impact on many lives and the donations will go towards ways in which we can honour Dayle’s legacy, and the hearts and souls of those he touched.
“From the bottom of our hearts, thank you!”
