A Young Hockey Star Honors His Brother | Tampa News

A ten-year-old hockey star, Raylan Fox, is honoring his late brother Mason—lost to leukemia in 2024—by leading a powerful campaign for pediatric cancer awareness. Playing for the Tampa Bay Crunch, Raylan and his team are wearing gold shoelaces and using special gold pucks this September, during Pediatric Cancer Awareness Month, to keep Mason’s memory alive. Mason, though unable to play due to his illness, was an honorary teammate, and his family founded the Smile Like Mason Fox Foundation, inspired by his wish to give joy to kids in hospitals. Raylan, who wears his brother’s name on his jersey, finds healing and purpose on the ice, carrying Mason’s spirit forward through every game and every dollar raised for research and hope.
