On Thursday, Grammy Award-winning artist Prince passed away. The news quickly spread around the globe and created a wide wave of sympathy and consolation. Today's death of former New England Patriots defensive tackle Ron Brace won't create the same world-wide response but that does of course not mean that it is any lesser of a tragedy.
In December 1986, Ronald Jeffery Brace III was born in Springfield, Massachusetts. He played football since he was a child and after highschool received offers from multiple universities in the country. He ultimately elected to join Boston College and played his entire college career with the Eagles.
