BUFFALO, N.Y. - Hunter Kelly, whose battle with a fatal nervous system disease inspired his Hall of Fame father Jim Kelly's charitable works, died Friday. He was 8.

Hunter's doctor, Patricia Duffner, said he died of respiratory failure.

Hunter's Hope Foundation released a statement saying the Kelly family is grateful for the support people have shown.

"It is the family's hope that all who mourn for their son, Hunter, would join them in thanking the Lord for his precious life," the statement read.

Jill Kelly went to my high school, for years the community here rallied around them and the Hunter's Hope Foundation. Truly sad news. RIP Hunter

The doctors told them at the time of Hunter's diagnosis that he wouldn't make it past 3.
