With my Brisk departure from #Boston, she is the one person that I regret not saying goodbye too. As a young player/man she was a gr8 example of how a woman stands beside, not behind, a man of power! I never got a chance to say thanks 4 that lasting impression. R.I.P. You will be missed.
Left tackle Matt Light, via the NFL Network, ”She wasn’t someone we saw like Robert or Jonathan and the rest of the family, but her impact was felt in many other ways. And just the things she did, in that community, and what that did for guys on the team, I mean, it really drove me to do a lot to give back and find my little niche to be part of that community. I’ll tell you she’s an incredible person. She really was.”
Current Patriots linebacker Jerod Mayo, to The Boston Globe: “I am extremely saddened with the passing of Myra Kraft. [She] has been a mainstay in the community and the Patriots family.
