BRIDGEVILLE, PA — The family of the 7th-grade Chartiers Valley Middle School student who collapsed and died at basketball practice is attempting to raise money to cover his funeral expenses. Jay Kidd, the father of Jayson Kidd, 12, created a GoFundMe page after Jayson's death. "We never expected anything like this to happen to our family," he wrote. " Jayson's heart stopped during basketball practice and they could not bring him back.
