A fundraiser has been started to raise money for a family who lost a father as the result of a boating accident near Bayfield on June 10th.
Police, Fire and EMS were called to the site of a pleasure craft operator in distress.
The 32-year-old Bluewater resident was later declared deceased and 8-year-old Madison and 5-year-old Maxwell lost their father.
A Firefighter also lost their life in the incident.
The GoFundMe campaign is in support of the two to make sure they have the necessary resources to navigate their grief, heal and ultimately create a hopeful future.
The money will be primarily used for counselling for the two as they were with their father at the time of the incident.
They are also hoping to put money aside for the two for the future.
