JOHNNY GAUDREAU’S SISTER’S WEDDING CANCELLED AFTER BROTHERS’ TRAGIC DEATH: REPORT

“The best dad in the world. So caring and loving. The best partner to parent with. John never missed an appointment,” she wrote. “Was the best at putting the baby to sleep and the apple of Noa’s eye. I love how much she looks like him. We are going to make you proud. We love you so much, Daddy.”

The Gaudreau family suffered an unimaginable loss when, on Thursday night, the day before Katie Gaudreau’s wedding, the 43-year-old Sean Higgins hit the brothers on a rural New Jersey road while they were riding bicycles.

New Jersey State Police reported that Higgins, who was suspected of driving under the influence of alcohol, attempted to pass two other vehicles on the right and struck the Gaudreau brothers from behind.
