I just heard this morning that one of ACU’s best players of the D1 era died on Friday the 7th. He has been fighting acute lymphoblastic leukemia for a while now. He was 24.
There will be a memorial service at Beltway South on June 12 at 11:00 am.

I have been trying to post something on the board about Kade for the past day, just wasn't able to muster it up. A great kid and a great Wildcat. Tragic loss to the ACU community.

This is so, so sad. A really fine young man with wonderful parents. Really good athlete, student, and person. Always friendly, smiling and kind. Just an outstanding young man. Can't imagine how hard this is for his family.

This is tragic! I didn’t know him but we had lots of mutual friends who praise him about as much as anyone they know. So heartbreaking!

There was a really big crowd at the memorial service today. A lot of his old team mates were there from all over and Josh Lamberson even came down for it. Was really good to see and visit with a lot of the "old guys" and visit with Josh. Was very obvious how many of them the really love Josh. Also the Parmellys were really blessed by him coming. Bryan, his dad, spoke for a few minutes and said that Kade's body had been donated to medical science, UT Southern I would guess.

Watched on-line. I wish they had panned the crowd even one time. Kristian Dillard (KD) did a good job. For those who don't know KD, he is the sprints coach at ACU. KD and his wife, Aleeah, met Kade through FCA. KD has a wonderful, Godly influence on the Wildcat T&F team.

The South Campus at Beltway seats around 1800 people. My estimation was there was somewhere between 1200-1300 in attendance.
