Huskey Family loses Valued Student

On Dec. 30, Kenny Bragg sadly passed away along with his parents and sister when their house exploded in Whitmore Lake, Michigan. Kenny was an aspiring archeologist and valued member of the Pep Band and Husky family. He was set to graduate this year. 

Kenny’s parents Don and Hope Bragg both graduated from Tech with degrees in forestry. They are survived by their son Stephen.

All students are invited to a candlelight vigil hosted by the Huskies Pep Band on Wednesday the 10th to mourn the loss of Kenny. Kenny’s grandfather and brother survived the blast, but were severely injured. The Bragg family is asking for donations to help pay for their recovery. Students can donate at gofundme.com/f/assist-stephens-recovery and gofundme.com/f/richard-pruden-medical-expenses. If you need assistance, students are encouraged to seek help at the Center for Student Mental Health and Well-being or by emailing counseling@mtu.edu.
