Valley East Minor Baseball Association (VEMBA) mourns the passing of Peter Hellstrom.
Mr. Hellstrom played an integral role in the rebranding of our competitive program as the Junior Voyageurs.
Alongside then-VEMBA President Denis Dalcourt and Jean-Gilles LaRocque, Mr. Hellstrom worked tirelessly to develop a brand that connected every level of the baseball pathway — from grassroots baseball at VEMBA, to elite development at the Baseball Academy, and on to post-secondary baseball with the Laurentian Voyageurs.
Mr. Hellstrom believed in this vision and was a steadfast supporter of the program. His contributions helped build a lasting legacy within our baseball community, and we are grateful for the role he played in its development.
Our deepest condolences go out to the Hellstrom family and all those who knew and loved him. You are in our thoughts during this difficult time.
