Fox News
The father of the standout high school quarterback in Georgia who died earlier this month said at his son's funeral Tuesday that early reports linking his son's death to complications after a routine surgery were not true.
"And he didn’t kill himself. I want to make sure that’s clear. But even at the hospital, they couldn’t figure out what was wrong with him," he said.
The report said Robbie Roper got sick while he visited family in St. Augustine, Florida. The paper said there was no autopsy.
The 18-year-old was well-loved and praised for his skill on the field and character in the community. He had just completed a successful season at Roswell High School and had been giving thought to where he wanted to play college ball.
