I know that not many here are University Of Michigan football fans, but as of yesterday this grandfather is down, and I need to get it out.....
Two fellow 'Grandfathers lost their 5 year old grandson yesterday. Former Michigan football Head Coach Lloyd Carr and All-American defensive back Tom Curtis also from the University of Michigan.
Little CHAD CARR, the youngest of Tammi and Jason Carr's three sons lost his battle with an inoperable brain tumor. [Jason is a former Mich. quarterback, 1992-1995, Gary Moeller H.Coach era]
Not surprising, the entire football, and other Michigan athletics teams had rallied around Chad since his diagnosis in Sept. 2014. The football players wore "#CHAD TOUGH" on the back of their helmets, but this past Saturday, surprisingly, rival teams Michigan State University and Ohio State University also wore the slogan.
To quote his mother --"Chad gained his angel wings. He left the earth peacefully and is now running and jumping in heaven".
R.I.P. CHAD
