Family and friends are helping support the family of a southern Alberta man and his two kids killed in a car crash in BC last weekend.
A GoFundMe page identifies those who died as 47 year old Mike Cochlin of Okotoks along with his two boys, 8 year old Liam and 5 year old Quinn.
The fundraising website has a goal of raising $100,000 for the Cochlin family.
Mike and his two sons were on their way home from a “special road trip” when the crash happened north of Kamloops on Sunday. RCMP say their vehicle failed to negotiate a curve, went over a concrete barrier and down a steep embankment.
Mike died at the scene while Liam passed away in hospital in Kamloops.
Quinn was taken to BC Children’s Hospital in Vancouver. The GoFundMe Page states: “Quinn will be donating his heart, liver and kidneys tonight. He is a hero”.
The young boy died Thursday (Feb. 27).
