Brodie King, a 16-year-old Bradley Central High School athlete, passed away due to a car accident on May 24, 2026.
He fought hard to overcome his injuries for five days but tragically left the world, leaving his parents, Chris King and Brandie Price Rominger, behind.
Brodie’s passion for football was evident from an early age.
He honed his skills with the LFMS 7th/8th Grade Bruins before advancing to the Bradley Central JV and Varsity Football teams.
Coaches and teammates remember him as a tenacious, hardworking athlete whose enthusiasm and leadership on the field inspired those around him.
Similarly, his coaches often remarked on his fearless play style and relentless drive, which reflected his commitment to excellence.
Off the field, Brodie balanced athletics with a part-time job, showcasing his maturity and work ethic. Yet his humility and genuine care for others truly defined him.
Friends recall how he uplifted those around him, whether with a quick joke, a helping hand, or a listening ear, making everyone feel valued.
I woke up at 3am with Brodie on my mind, as I was praying God reminded me of the miracles he performed on the 3rd day, the first was his resurrection and walking out of the tomb on that third day.
In medical trauma the first 3 days are huge. We are at day 3 and Brodie needs a divine miracle only God can perform. Please share this with everyone, we need your prayers.
