Austin Roberts, a noted wrestler at Spencer High School, died in late December 2015 after a match. His unexpected death shook the Northern Iowa community.

From televangelists to raptor specialists, we said goodbye to several notable Iowans who significantly contributed to politics, art, education, sports, law, and other fields during 2015.
