It91裸聊视频檚 been nearly a month since Ivor Lundin died while captaining Tolko91裸聊视频檚 boom-boat and his friends and family are still struggling to make sense of their loss.

91裸聊视频淥f course we still don91裸聊视频檛 have a lot of answers about what happened, but as far as the recovery went, they just didn91裸聊视频檛 do enough,91裸聊视频 said Lundin91裸聊视频檚 partner, Brenda.

When Ivor91裸聊视频檚 boat went down late Jan. 30, Brenda said she91裸聊视频檚 been told nobody went into the water to save him. Those who were at the scene waited until emergency crews showed up.

Then they just lowered a camera into the boat to confirm he was there.

91裸聊视频淚vor91裸聊视频檚 body was left in the water until noon the next day and that91裸聊视频檚 so unbelievable,91裸聊视频 she said.

91裸聊视频淗e was close to shore, you could see the roof and lights from there. I91裸聊视频檝e seen people put in more effort to save dogs from water.91裸聊视频

Although she admits she91裸聊视频檚 grief stricken, Brenda said she is raising the issue because Ivor deserved better.

91裸聊视频淭he whole thing is wrong, I91裸聊视频檝e never seen anything like this in my life,91裸聊视频 she said. 91裸聊视频淚 know it will never bring him back, but they never made enough effort.91裸聊视频

Ivor, she said, was an amazing guy who was always willing to lend a hand to anybody who needed it.

91裸聊视频淗e was a humble, strong person,91裸聊视频 she said. 91裸聊视频淗e knew every aspect of the mill and all the boats and loved his work on the water.91裸聊视频

She said the 57-year-old volunteered for the city every year during the fireworks to take the barges out and he was very experienced on the water.

The last person Ivor spoke with was her son.

91裸聊视频淗e forgot his lunch and said the old boat had taken on some water, so he was going to bail it out,91裸聊视频 she said. 91裸聊视频淗e said that was normal. It was always treading water.91裸聊视频

There are multiple investigations into the sinking.

The Transportation Safety Board and WorkSafe BC are both looking into it.

The TSB said they will have more information in the next week, and are still in the process of assessing the evidence.

WorkSafe BC said they haven91裸聊视频檛 had a complaint about the Tolko boat in recent years.

In the days after the incident Don Hanson, communications manager at Tolko Industries, said that the mill91裸聊视频檚 focus is on Lundin91裸聊视频檚 family and the employees who were suffering from his loss.

91裸聊视频淚t91裸聊视频檚 devastating news for Tolko. We take safety very seriously. We are going to work closely with the authorities on the investigation and find out what happened.91裸聊视频
