It is with profound sadness that the Mississauga Arrows and Toronto Gators share the news of the passing our teammate and friend Joel Langford on Tuesday June 2.
We deeply appreciate all of the kind words that have been shared on social media. It’s tragic that we’ve lost Joel so young. He was a wonderful young man with a tremendous future both in the game and in life.
Our thoughts and prayers are with the Langford family.
When we have more information on a service, we will share it with the fastball community.
Thank you one and all,
Blair Setford
