To Zach Franko:
On last nights pregame show with Regan Bartel, you gave thanks to not only the Kelowna Rockets organization and your billets and friends, but also to the fans. Well, we, the fans, would like to take this opportunity to thank you, for absolutely everything you have done for this Kelowna Rockets organization and the community. Your smiling face, personable demeanor and downright friendliness will be missed more than you know.
From your visits to elementary schools, to your other, countless community outreaches, to your crafty play inside opposition ice, there will be no match to what you did during your time in Kelowna. It's rare, for fans to feel the pain of a traded player, as teammates, family members or close friends do, but when you are as well liked as you were, it hits harder to home for even the fans. To see a fan favorite traded in his final year, from a team with amazing chemistry and friendship is heartbreaking.
It's with a heavy heart that we have to say goodbye to you, Mr. Franko, but always remember, in the hearts and eyes of the fans, you are, and forever will be, a Kelowna Rocket. We look forward to seeing you at many an alumni gatherings for some golf and friendly hockey game.
The most best of luck to you Zach Franko with the Kootenay Ice and in all your future endeavors.
Sincerely;
The Kelowna Rockets Fans
