The body of our beloved Tempest Grace Gale (Pest) was found November 18, 2009 in the water at Ford Cove. The community is saddened and shocked by this loss as we come together to grieve and support her family and loved ones.

An account has been established at the Credit Union to support Tempest's family (including for the funeral). Donations can be made at Union Bay Credit Union, the Co-op and the Cove.
