She writes on the Salmon Arm Stemmer Vigil Facebook page :

“They are our friends, family, brothers. I feel for most people in our community a piece of their hearts were lost with them.

“The lives of the Stemmer family have been irrevocably changed forever. We are all in mourning of the loss of their lives, alongside the others lost in this tragedy.

“We want to invite the community to stand with us together in honour of those lost. Please come attend the candlelight vigil at Stemmer Construction on Sunday, July 18th at 8 p.m.”
