A senior cheerleader at MMCRU (Marcus-Meriden-Cleghorn/Remsen-Union) died suddenly as she arrived at school last week. The cause of death was determined to be a blood clot in her lungs.
MMCRU’s Friday night football opponent, Okoboji, postponed the game to Monday and then collected more than $2000 for a scholarship in memory of Natalee Henke, the Sioux City Journal‘s Tim Gallagher writes. Other schools in northwest Iowa also made gestures of support, the Le Mars Sentinel reports.
