RIP

Thoughts go out to the loved ones who lost a friend, Sabrina Goeb, and her bfriend Chris Nolan, in a freak accident that ended with their bodies being found in the St Lawrence River yesterday. After going missing two weeks ago, relatives reported the couple missing on Sunday. The pair had just bought a house in Sainte Catherine and were attending a party in the region.

Sabrina liked her gay boys and her gay boys liked her. Judging from the barrage of Facebook friends mourning her passing, looks like she’ll be gravely missed.

Here’s hoping they find clues as to what happened.
