“A normal, healthy, happy boy,” his father, Kelly Lewis said.
On Saturday, three weeks and a day after Kadeo came home with a fever, he died at age 17. The news of Lewis’ rapid health descent stunned not only the Lewis family – Kelly and his wife, Crystal, and sons Carter, 26, and Braxton, 13 – but friends at Cascade and throughout the local wrestling community.
Cascade High School released this statement on Sunday: “All thoughts and prayers are with the Lewis family upon the tragic loss of Kadeo. The Cascade High School family will support the Lewis family, our students, and staff as we move forward in the coming days. Additional counselors will be here Monday for anyone needing to talk.”
