Jarrad's and Clementine's tragedy. The jumper donated by Jarrad to ease someone else's tragedy.
On Wednesday, Sydney Swans co-captain, Jarrad McVeigh and wife, Clementine suffered a personal tragedy when their little baby daughter, Luella, passed away. Luella, who was just a month old, died of serious heart complications.
Swans’ coach, John Longmire, said that the Club would support Jarrad and Clementine “every step of the way“.
Yesterday, the Vietnam Swans wrote to the Sydney Swans to offer our deepest condolences.
Just five months ago, Jarrad was helping others in need. Jarrad had signed a Sydney Swans jumper (together with Longmire and Goodes) which was auctioned in HCMC to raise money for the Christchurch Earthquake Appeal.
In this afternoon’s match against the Geelong Cats, the Sydney Swans will wear black armbands in memory of Luella. And the Vietnam Swans will be watching in support.
