The news was devastating for anyone who knew Luke Richardson and
his family: Last November, his daughter Daron took her own life at
the age of 14.
But for Todd and Caroline Marchant, it hit even closer to

The Marchants became very close with Luke, wife Stephanie and the
rest of the Richardson family when Todd and Luke were teammates for
seven seasons in Edmonton and two more in Columbus. The
Richardsons’ oldest daughter Morgan was a flower girl in the
Marchants’ wedding, and Caroline had even helped coach a
hockey team Daron played on for a season in Columbus. For awhile,
the two families lived close enough to each other that, “I
could look out our window and see their house,” Todd
says.
