Family of Late Calgary Trucker Receive Donations from the Community

ย On the morning of December 3, 2018, Amandeep Sethiโ€™s co-driver was backing up his truck to hook up the trailer, not knowing Sethi was behind the truck ultimately crushing him between the two machines.

Amandeep Sethi was 44-years old and worked as an owner-operator under contract at Bison Transport in Calgary. He leaves behind two young children and his wife without an income.

In the wake of this tragedy, a family friend of the Sethiโ€™s started a GoFundMe page to pay for the funeral costs and the familyโ€™s living expenses until they can get back on their feet. Close to five days after Amandeepโ€™s death, donations passed the $60,000 mark.

Amandeepโ€™s wife, Suvidha, said she is deeply thankful for all of the donors; even someone whoโ€™s put forward just a dollar.
