Fairmont Students Sport Pink to Honor Friend

Brogan Raddish, 14, was remembered today by numerous students and teachers from West Fairmont Middle School and Fairmont High School in a unique way.

Brogan passed away last night after years of battling the cancer, Ewing's Sarcoma.

"Everyone is wearing pink to support her and everything she stood for," says Emily Domico, student at Fairmont High.

"We're a family and Brogan was a good friend of ours. We just want to support her and her family and tell them how much we love them," says Destini Arbogast, student at Fairmont High.

"She's had cancer since she was four. And we've been wearing pink for a few years now," says Adrianne Constable, student at West Fairmont Middle School.

The hallways were full of pink, but also full of love and support for their friend today.

"I heard she was really nice and funny. She loved people and was helpful," says Maddie Stevenski, student at West Fairmont Middle School.

"She was in my first and second period class. I still have her thumb drive wrapped in pink ribbon in which she described herself as "brave". And I couldn't agree more," says Jackie Constable, 8th grade English teacher.

Students say this is one of the many years they've shown support for Brogan and her family, and she will be deeply missed.
