So sorry you are connected to this. Please give the family our best from the OSO crowd. From what the news is saying, it is a very bad report. Thankfully, noone else was severly injured or killed. I am surprised we do not know him.
God Speed to the family..

Body found in river following boat crash
AURORA, Ind. - The body of a 39-year-old Petersburg, Ky., man missing since a Sunday boat crash was recovered Tuesday afternoon from the Ohio River.
A volunteer boater spotted the body of Graham Cottingham about 3:30 p.m. about three-quarters of a mile downstream from where the crash occurred, said Sgt. Bill Baumbauer, an Indiana Conservation officer. The body was about 100 feet from shore, he said.
Cottingham was one of five people on board the boat that capsized near Lesko Park.
The other four, including a 10-year-old boy, were rescued from the water shortly after the crash.
The boat apparently struck a wake, Baumbauer said.
