On Saturday, July 5, Bonner\u2019s family initially reported her passing. In addition to stating that \u201cshe lost her life in the tragic flooding,\u201d<\/strong> Peck\u2019s family requested solitude to grieve for their daughter the following day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On Facebook, Alive11 Reporter Kaitlyn Ross shared a statement from Peck\u2019s mother. \u201cEloise was literally friends with everyone,\u201d<\/strong> she reportedly said. \u201cShe loved spaghetti, but not more than she loved dogs and animals.\u201d <\/strong>She continued:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cShe had a family who loved her fiercely for the 8 years we were blessed to have her. Especially her Mommy.\u201d<\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ross disclosed that Eloise\u2019s death was verified by her relatives. \u201cShe passed away alongside her best friend and cabinmate, Lila Bonner, who also lost her life,\u201d<\/strong> Ross wrote, before adding:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThis photo shows Eloise and Lila together: happy, thriving, and surrounded by summer camp joy. Rest in peace, sweet girls. You will never be forgotten.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
