A teenager who fought leukemia for more than two years has passed away. Carrie Craker says her grandson, 16-year-old Dylan Crabb died of the disease at about 7:15 Monday morning.

Crabb made headlines last July. The Children's Foundation asked him what he would like for a "make a wish" gift. He asked for two dairy cows to go with 13 he already had. He told us he had always wanted to be a dairy farmer.

In March, more than a hundred people were on the streets of Cornell for a fundraiser. It brought in more than $10,000 to send Dylan to a clinical trial in Maryland. Craker says visitation for Dylan is Thursday from 1p.m. until 4 p.m. at the Cornell High School. The service starts there 4 p.m.
