MOTHER ONLY SURVIVOR IN TRAGIC KAYAKING ACCIDENT

MOTHER ONLY SURVIVOR IN TRAGIC KAYAKING ACCIDENT

A mother of three is the only survivor of a kayaking accident on Lake Superior.  Cari Mews, her husband Erik Fryman and their three children were kayaking between two islands in the waters off northern Wisconsin last Thursday when their kayak was tipped over by high winds and waves.

Cari was able to text her sister that there was an emergency, but her sister didn’t get it until hours later.  By the time rescuers found her, Cari was suffering from hypothermia and exhaustion.  That night, search crews found the bodies of Erik, their son and one of their girls.  Their second daughter’s body was found the next day.
