A local family is mourning the loss of a standout Pennsylvania football player who died in a violent car crash last week.
Tonee Ellis, 22, was killed when police say his car left Route 22 in Perry County and smashed into a tree which caused it to catch fire.
Ellis, a Norristown native, was known as one of Montgomery County's most decorated athletes for accolades in both football and wrestling. "We come from a long line of athletes in our family," Terill said. "Ellis's are known for their athletic ability, so it's just a natural thing and he just worked hard at it."
While Tonee's sports resume is robust, family members like his brother Terill will miss him for reasons far greater than athletics.
