They are also huge Arizona Coyotes fans and season ticket holders. With Saturday night’s game against the Anaheim Ducks, the final game of the year for the Coyotes, Eitan and Ronit Urman were invited to the game to drop the ceremonial puck.

Eitan, the father, excited to be able to get to go out onto the ice, waved to crowd and proudly showed off his throwback Coyotes uniform.

Right before they dropped the puck, their son Daniel came out to their surprise and the crowd roared over the soldier’s return.

Eitan was so excited to see his son that he immediately sprinted too his him and threw him in the air for a giant father and son bear hug.

Not only did they share a huge embrace, they came crashing down to the ice because it’s ice and any movement on there without balance will bring one crashing down.

Not even caring about hitting the ice, his dad continued to hug his son and he was elated in emotion over his return.

Members of the military returning home to surprise family members is nothing new, but the celebration and emotion from the parents made this return even better.
