Facebook auction benefits families of plane crash victims
When Cam and Wade Cooper died in a plane crash during a fly-in fishing trip last June, they both left behind wives and children whose lives were flipped upside down with the loss of their loved one.
But a magazine out of Edmonton started a trust fund for the children and is raising money via an online auction.
“Wade and Cam were the brothers of Ash Cooper, who has been with our magazine for … 15 years now,” said Meaghan Tanner from the magazine.
The Cooper brothers were well-known in cowboy circles on the Prairies. Cam was a member of the Professional Rodeo Cowboys Association, and Wade managed Heartland Livestock in Prince Albert.
