The loss to both his family and the Dearborn community prompted the DFD to make the decision to set aside part of the proceeds for Grenfell's family. Specifically, the funds will be used to help send his teenage son and daughter to college.
Proceeds to the Dearborn Hockey Association will be used to help offset the costs for kids to play in the group's youth league.
