MONTREAL – Kelyn Rowe’s dramatic, last-gasp winner in Sunday evening’s season finale against the Montreal Impact came with a big-time assist from Devin Suau.
Suau, whose bravery, spirit and boundless enthusiasm captured the hearts of everyone who learned his story, lost his courageous battle with a rare form of pediatric cancer early Friday morning. He was just one week shy of his 7th birthday.
Two weeks ago Rowe had the chance to visit Suau, and the heroic youngster officially became the newest member of the New England Revolution by signing a contract with the club.
