Wes Leonard, Remembered and Honored

February 12, 2012

Nearly a year after his unexpected and tragic death, Wes Leonard's memory lives on as his story continues to touch many on a national level. 

Fennville High School added to his legacy Friday, inducting the former all-state basketball standout into its athletic Hall of Fame in a ceremony one Michigan sportswriter described as both somber and proud. 

Check out his report and links to additional coverage of Friday's induction by clicking the links below, and also one for the Wes Leonard Heart Team and its efforts in preventing sudden cardiac arrest:
