GUELPH --
In a split second on January 31, 2021, the Lodge family was ripped apart.
Susan Lodge was driving her three children home after an afternoon of cross country skiing when a horrific crash in North Dumfries took the lives of two of them.
Amanda, 10, and Evan, 12, both died.
Alyssa, 9, along with mother Susan, survived.
"Amanda was 10 when she passed away, 10-and-a-half," Susan said while looking at photos of her children. "Evan, he was 12-and-a-half. They were just about to grow up. You know, they were measuring themselves every few weeks and even when we thought, 'it’s only been a couple of weeks, how could you possibly be taller?' But they were every time."
