Columbus softball coach dies
The Columbus High School community lost a loved individual Saturday when Tim Milder died.
Milder, age 55, was the Wildcats softball coach.
Brady Milder, a nephew, said that the coach was working on the softball diamond Saturday but didn't come home as scheduled.
The coach's wife, Colleen, went to look for him and found him collapsed on the field.
His body was sent to the University of Iowa for an autopsy.
'It maybe was a heart attack, but we don't know,” Brady Milder said. 'This is a big schock to all of us in the family.”
