Horizon Health is offering counselling to the community in the wake of a crash that claimed the lives of four teenagers in Miramichi, N.B.
The teens died late on April 20 when the vehicle they were in veered off a rural road, flipped over and landed on its roof in deep water.
The victims have been identified as Logan Matchett, 17, of Strathadam, Avery Astle, 16, of Strathadam, Cassie Lloyd, 17, of Escuminac and Emma Connick, 18, of Barnaby.
