An online fundraising tool created to help cover the funeral expenses of one of two lightning strike victims killed Thursday at Mammoth Park lake in Mt. Pleasant Township topped its $10,000 goal in less than nine hours.
About $14,380 had been pledged from 265 donors to help pay for the funeral of Kaitlyn E. “Moe” Rosensteel, 18, of Donora, who was struck and killed by lightning at 4 p.m. while fishing at the park with her friend, Brendan A. McGowan, 18, of North Huntingdon.
After surpassing the $10,000 goal, a new goal was set at $20,000.
“Moe was enjoying her first week off of school, graduating just recently, at Mammoth Park in Mount Pleasant,” according to the GoFundMe page.
