Last year Idol’s champ David Cook brother Adam, 36, succumbs to brain cancer.
While competing David played a guitar emblazoned with the initials AC for his cancer-stricken elder brother and repeatedly said his brother’s battle had inspired him to push himself in his performances.
Last year the ENQUIRER reported how friends of the stricken lawyer raised $45,000 trip to charter a special medical jet to LA so Adam could see David on Idol.
David confirmed reports of his brother’s passing at the Race for Hope in Washington D.C. this morning.
