## Resource

Five siblings—Peter, Helena, Sara, Maggie, and Susy—lost their lives in a devastating crash on June 12th in Mapleton Township, sparking a community in mourning and prompting a renewed push for rural road safety. The family, still reeling, has turned to quiet support as they prepare for Saturday’s funeral, declining media interviews while thanking the public for their compassion. Injuries were also suffered by other family members and a couple in the van, including the mother, hospitalized but improving, and their infant brother released with a broken leg. In response to the tragedy and a growing pattern of intersection accidents, the OPP has launched a targeted safety campaign urging drivers to slow down and obey laws at rural crossings.
