Likewise, Head Football Coach at Brighton High School, Keith Setler, MEd, shared a heartfelt tribute, honoring Traice Davis’s memory:

Cardinal Nation there’s never an easy way to put into words what cant be put into words. As a coach watching a beautiful family lose a child is heartbreaking and I’d be fooling myself to think I can offer comfort during an uncomfortable time. I can offer this, to the Davis family, the Brighton community, Brighton family of students and faculty. Traice Davis is a wonderful young man and he is genuinely loved by EVERYONE around him. I watched an entire school feel the impact of his loss and I know we will have the impact of his spirit moving forward. We enter Fridays contest with the blessing of the Davis family and we plan to honor them in our play. The entirety of our being is focused on praying for the Davis family and lifting them up, please join us.

🙏🏾🙏🏾 Love you 4!!
