Fundraiser Held for Family of Drowning Victim

The family of teen drowning victim Ty Lewis benefits from a fundraiser hosted by the Hollister community on Wednesday.

The 15-year-old passed away at a St. Louis Children’s hospital days after he was pulled from a swimming area at Table Rock Lake by witnesses and was revived by first responders.

The benefit was held at Chad Fuqua Park in Hollister with local restaurants sponsoring the event and all proceeds going to support the Lewis family.
