SIMSBURY — Logan Schoenhardt, a 10-year-old boy whose battle with brain cancer touched New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady, died Monday.

Schoenhardt was a student at The Masters School in Simsbury and a huge Patriots fan.

Brady made a video early last year for Schoenhardt and met him in December.

“Well, he is a special young man,” Brady said, according to the Hartford Courant. “Just to have a chance to know his story has been very humbling and certainly gives me a lot of perspective, and certainly all of us a lot of perspective on the very difficult challenges a lot of families face, and certainly that he has faced.”

The Simsbury boy was featured in a segment of ESPN’s “E:60.”
