A Mother’s Last Words as She Drowns on Day of Surprise Proposal & Birthday

admin

In one final act of love, a mother saves her daughter before she drowned. It was a day meant to celebrate life and love but it turned into a tragedy.

Tasha Turner, 30, was one of seven people on the boating trip to celebrate her birthday, which took place on Saturday evening near Big River Park, San Bernardino County, according to Deputy William Poe. Tasha drowned after being entangled in a rope that was connected to the sinking boat.

“She’s so warm and loving. She was unjudgemental”,

her sister said about her while grieving.

At some point during the trip, Turner, boat operator Umberto Bagnara of Beaumont and five other passengers departed from the launch ramp at Big River Park to go tubing. Then the boat “lost power and became swamped and started to sink,” Poe told NBC News.

Bagnara and five other passengers were able to swim away. However, Turner was tangled in a rope attached to the vessel and she was unable to free herself.

“The boat was so heavy, I believe it got tied up around her and pulled her in.”

Turner’s boyfriend, Norris Salah, told NBC.

That’s when Turner handed her unidentified daughter to a passing jet-skier.

“Before her mom threw her, she gave her a hug and said, ‘I love you. Goodbye,'”

the victim’s sister, Myesha Turner, said of Tasha’s final act.

Turner’s body was found by dive teams around 7 a.m. on Sunday.

Tasha’s death not only devastated her family, but it shattered her boyfriend Norris, who had a ring in his pocket and was ready to propose to her on the water.

“I love you very much. I love you,”

Norris said of his late girlfriend while fighting back tears.

The operator of the boat is cooperating with the investigation. Investigators are looking into if there were too many people aboard the boat.
