Family of London Knights player Abakar Kazbekov grateful for outpouring of support
“We are all friends, and neighbours of a young hockey player somewhere. Put them in your thoughts and prayers as we all grieve this terrible loss,” the family said.David Goldberg is a close family friend whose mother-in-law was part of the billet family with the Knights that housed Kazbekov and his brother Gadzhi. Goldberg lived about five minutes away and says the two brothers “very quickly became a big part of our family.
“He brought furniture in for us, he helped us put a pool table together. There was never any ‘no I can’t do it, no I’m busy, no I don’t want to come over, no we’re not playing ’ — he played PS4 with my 11-year-old a number of times,” Goldberg added.Goldberg also remembers Kazbekov’s unmatched passion for the sport, remarking that “it was hockey or nothing.”
“He loved hockey, he wanted to continue, he had dreams of the NHL. As the first pick overall in Under-18 Priority Selection, those were attainable dreams, he has punched his ticket, he was on the way.”Luke Durda/OHL Images via GoFundMe On top of supporting funeral costs, the GoFundMe campaign will also help pay for an upcoming memorial and viewing.Alina Yakus, a close friend of the Kavbekovs who organized the fundraiser on their behalf, says the plan is to provide a service for the general public to attend.
“Everything’s trying to get planned pretty quickly, so that everyone has a chance to grieve and pay their respects,” Yakus added.
