I am a close friend with all of them & their families. All 5 had unknowingly stepped into the blind that had been tied down at same 3' it's always been. Not realizing it had swollen up to 7 ft the previous day. Essentially one side was full of water but as they each proceeded to walk the horror that they were standing in a closed blind that was submerged on one side as water started rolling to different ends of boat it tilted enough to bring it down with all 5 inside as it flipped completely upside down. JH opened eyes to look for light & reached further in the blind until he felt an arm. He brought them both to surface by swimming to the light.
It was a numbing, exhausting fight as he struggled to save both of their lives. They said one more breath & that'd have been it... They reached land right while he debated giving up & sat hopelessly witnessing the their spouses, siblings, son/nephew trapped in the submerged blind.

It was a tragic accident. JH's mom's best friend passed away from a heart attack Sun as she was trying to console her BF after losing her grandson & daughter in law, not to mention help her son who survived cope with this trauma. Now she's burying her DIL, grandson, her son's brother in law & her very best friend who had a heart attack while trying to console her. Just so horrible.
