If he coughed anytime in the last 3 months or ran a fever-—CV19. Blessings to him and his family. RIP young fella.

Prayers for the young man and may God comfort his family. Terrible to lose someone that young.

He died in Canada so it likely was a brain tumor... If he lived in New York... Covid-19 *AKA The Italian flu and his body would be buried in a mass grave, just for good measure.

Pete Retzlof captain of NFL’s championship Eagles team of 1960 died yesterday. Now there was a football player. One week the team had a horrible game, he refused to take his check.
