Much too young and seemed like a very nice young man.  Condolences to his family.

@occasionalrain ... How sad, so young.  Was a cause of death mentioned.? Heart

Wow, he was just on.  I watched this. Tragic, he was just 24.

No cause of death only that it was unexpected. 

 

He was the 2nd of four sons.  One of my favorites and I was looking forward to seeing him in the Tournament  of Champions.

@occasionalrain ...Thank you for getting back to me so quickly.  It breaks my heart when I read of people dying at such a young age, and such a brilliant young  man at that.  May he Rest in Peace.

This is such sad and awful news.  We just saw him winning on those final shows and I was always rooting for him.  I wonder if they will ever say the cause of death later maybe?

I think Alex enjoyed Brayden's winning streak. I certainly wanted to see how he did in this year's tournament. My sympathy goes out to his family.
