Kadye Cooper, Member of the University of Texas Rugby Team Passes

Rachel and Kadye at NashBash 2010

This is perhaps one of the most difficult blog posts I have ever had to write. Last Saturday while The Girl and I were in DC for Ruggerfest we got the phone call that no one ever wants to get. One of the girls we coach on the University of Texas Rugby Team was involved in a fatal car accident.

The University of Texas team and its coaches are devastated but are working together through this tragedy. Kadye Cooper was an incredibly vibrant and beautiful person who always left you with a smile. Her vigor and passion for life was enviable and we are all better people because of her presence. All of our love goes out to her family as they deal with this tragedy too.
