Thread: Peyton Manning sends letter, autographed photo for late fan

Peyton Manning lifted the spirits of a grieving family Tuesday, sending a birthday gift to one of his fans in Indiana who was killed earlier this year by a drunk driver.

Logan Brown, 15, was killed in March in a head-on collision with another car driven by a man whose blood alcohol content was four times the legal limit. Gayle Ricketts, Brown's grandmother, later wrote to Manning to share her grandson's story.

"As a grandmother, I felt like I should let Peyton know this young man idolized him and what he meant in his life," Ricketts told WFIE-TV in Evansville.

On Tuesday, which would have been Brown's 16th birthday, a package came in the mail from Manning. Inside was a handwritten letter and an autographed photo of Manning with "In memory of Logan Allen Brown" and the Denver Broncos quarterback's signature on it.
