The life of the party — that’s how 13-year-old Duncan McRae was lovingly remembered at his funeral Monday afternoon in Calgary.
Hundreds packed the First Alliance Church to remember the teen, who tragically died when he lost control while boarding last Tuesday in Millrise and fell into a cable fence.
Citytv’s Krista Sylvester attended the funeral and describes it to 660News:
“You see alot of fathers and mothers with arms around their children’s arms… Parents that knew Duncan had their arms around their kids consoling each other. I thought that was really touching” said Sylvester.
Sylvester adds Duncan was referred to as a “joker” and many were wearing sports jerseys because of his love for sports.
