With heavy hearts we mourn the loss of two of our own who lost their lives at sea this month.
The BCTFA wishes to express our most sincere and heartfelt condolences to the loved ones of those who lost their lives at sea, August 11th 2020.
Tom Lindberg was known to many in the BC fishing industry and many in the BC Tuna fleet.
Tom was a founding director and past President of the BCTFA. He was also a founding director of the CHMSF as well as a member of Tuna Advisory Board (TAB) representing USA/CDN Fishermen.
His contributions to our industry and his legacy will not be forgotten.
At this time the BCTFA does not know the identity of the second crew member but wishes to express our grief for this tragic loss of life and to send condolences to their loved ones who have been left behind.
For those of us who make our living on the sea this is a tragedy that unites us all in grief.
