Each of us born on this earth is destined to return to its cold ground someday. Not all of us will leave a legacy that far outlives us.
It's amazing the legacy that some people, some great people, leave behind despite leaving us all far too soon. Former Ohio State center Nick Mangold was taken from his family and the Buckeye family at 41. He left his wife and four children behind.
The legacy he left as a football player, but more importantly as a person, is profound. Posts have flooded in with memories and tributes across social media.
