Tim Dodd was camping with his family at Lake Panache in August when he suddenly collapsed. With a 15-minute boat ride to the nearest land, Dodd passed away.
In honour of their father, Kathryn Dodd-Digby and brother, Jeff Dodd, managed to quickly raise enough funds to purchase an AED for the area. Now nearly three months later, a total of three have been installed throughout Lake Panache. |

“They are ready to go and they are mapped out, so if there are people who need them they are there,” said Dodd-Digby, in a follow-up interview with CTV News.
“We will be getting a few more come the summer time that are going to be in more remote areas of the lake.”
The family’s goal was originally $10,000. Since launching a Go-Fund-Me campaign, they have now raised more than $17,000.
