A GoFundMe page has been launched to help the family of Ben Hamann, the 26-year-old who tragically died in a kayaking accident on Canandaigua Lake last week.

Hamann leaves behind his wife and their five-month-old daughter, and the fundraiser is intended to assist with memorial expenses and immediate family needs. Friends and community members are encouraging donations as a way to honor Hamann’s memory and support his family during this difficult time.

So far, the page has raised over $50,000 for the family.
