This week, we lost a warrior on the football field. Pocatello High School’s senior All-Conference outside linebacker Kade Cooper left us on Monday. According to Idaho State Journal, Kade died by suicide. Many are broken-hearted from the passing. Even Pocatello’s rival Century High School football team made a post on the passing of Kade.
We’d like to send our love and condolences to those at Pocatello High School and the friends and family of Kade Cooper. In times of need, don’t be afraid to reach out to those closest to you. pic.twitter.com/ERf9fetycB
