Collin Wehr Succumbs to Cancer at 11

Northbrook's Wehr family has released a letter notifying friends of their loss.

The following letter was distributed via email on Wednesday afternoon.

Dear Friends,

Collin drew his last breaths in our world this morning shortly after 1:00 a.m. He fought for as long as he could and much harder than one his age should ever have to in keeping with Walter Payton's belief, " Never die easy".
