One of the fatal ones involved a young biologist named Erin K. Johnson who was killed by a black bear while collecting geological samples near the Pogo Mine at the time of the attack.
Erin's mother is a fan of IM, and she reached out to me last night asking if I would post a link to a memorial fund established in her daughter's name.
I said of course I would.
Just click here to visit the Erin K. Johnson Memorial Fund.
The money will go toward science education and youth outdoor activities, which seem like very worthy causes to me.
I can only imagine this mother's immense grief at losing her daughter, and hope that at least with donations from kind strangers some good can be done in her child's name.
Thank you for reading this and for any support that you feel you can provide.
