using excerpts about Lindbergh himself, this year I'm posting both published and unpublished sections of Chapter 25, which focuses on the people he left he behind in the days immediately following his memorial game in Philadelphia, in which the Flyers defeated the defending champion Edmonton Oilers in a rematch of the 1985 Finals. PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 15, 1985 The Philadelphia Flyers' charter flight lifts off for Hartford. Despite the emotional victory over the Edmonton Oilers the previous night and the team's 10-game winning streak, the usual banter and joking is missing during the short trip. Thomas Eriksson makes the trip with the team, but has permission to leave right after the game to attend Pelle's funeral in Stockholm. Back at Pelle's house in Marlton, New Jersey, the Lindbergh family sits at the breakfast table. They talk about how moved they were by the memorial at the Spectrum and about the upcoming trip to Sweden. Kerstin talks to Kevin Cady and asks if he will come to Stockholm for the funeral. Cady, who had originally planned to head back to Portland, says yes. "I'll call the Flyers and arrange it," Kerstin replies. "You'll meet us at JFK in New York tomorrow." Across the ocean in Sweden, it's already the afternoon. The two biggest national newspapers, Aftonbladet and Expressen, have extensive coverage of the memorial and the game at the Spectrum. Later, Anna-Lisa and Gran pack everything they've brought to the U.S.. Kerstin prepares a bag for a one-week stay in Stockholm. ****
