Family and friends are preparing today to say goodbye to a teen who died in an ATV accident one week ago.

Gavin Ronald Krieser, 14, of Elkhorn passed away at Virden Health Centre Thursday, June 7, 2018.

Virden RCMP responded to the accident scene at a gravel pit about three kms west of Elkhorn.

They said it appeared the youth, who was wearing a helmet, was not aware of the steep drop on the other side of a pile of gravel and rolled over. Two others who were riding with him went for help. 

A celebration of Gavin's life will be held at the Elk's Hall in Elkhorn this afternoon, Thursday, June 14 at 2:00 p.m.
