An acquaintance of mine died today out on Banks Lake when I guess his jetski & a boat crashed, he ended up getting cut by the propeller. His wife was with him but she's in critical condition...

You never know when something can happen. Careful when you guys are out having fun, anything can happen!

Worst part is that he has several young children & a big portion of their house burned down about a month ago while they weren't home from an electrical issue... now his wife is left w/o a house & husband and several young kids...

It's a sad day for me & my buddy who was close friends with this person.

 

RIP and my condolences to the friends and family.

I do some dumb things out on the water, I'm sure. Lets all keep it safe.

 

Please pass along my condolences and if there is a fund set up let us know where to donate.

 

Visilli, that is a very sad story...my deepest condolences on the loss of your friend and to the family for their loss.

 

Sad, some of our family's best memory's are from Banks lake. Really bad deal.

RIP

 

Sorry to hear man!

Everyone be careful next weekend during Seafair!

 

I will get the information on the fund tomorrow. It still boggles my mind how quick something like that can happen. Just makes you think and really goes to show you can never be too careful when playing with powerful toys like boats & jet skis.

I'll post up the info as soon as I get it from his family.

 

Well I found out the info, I guess the family doesn't know how to setup a real "fund" so their church will be collecting money in the departed's name. If anyone is still interested in donating anything let me know.
