Players React to the Passing of Myra Kraft

It is a solemn day in Patriot nation with the news of the philanthropist and wife of Patriots owner Robert Kraft.

Former and current New England Patriot and Revolution players are coming forward this morning to express their condolences and thoughts on twitter.

Current defensive captain Vince Wilfork stated, “[stupid] lockout, I don’t even know how to get in touch with Mr. Kraft to offer my support and condolences.”

Wilfork went onto apologize for his frustration stating, “sorry guys had to vent, Myra was a wonderful woman who my wife and I loved dearly.” 

Former Patriot fullback Heath Evans said, “I'll never forget the first day Beth met Myra. She came home with so much joy on her face because of how special Myra made her feel. #AMAZINGWOMEN”

Current Patriot cornerback Devin McCourty asked that everyone “Please give their thoughts and prayers to Mr Kraft and his family on the passing of Ms. Kraft (D-Mac).”

Former New England Revolution star Taylor Twellman expressed his forever gratitude to the Kraft family.

"And will forever remember what Myra/Robert meant to me and my parents when I signed for the New England Revolution. My second set of parents were in Boston," he said.

There is no doubt that Patriot nation has lost a fearless leader, who some fans have dubbed "The First Lady of New England Football." Mrs. Kraft strived to make the Patriots a moral example on the field and in the community.
