To Brenda Powder, her late fiancé Laurent Isadore was a wonderful father with a big heart.
She said Isadore was showing that heart this past Saturday, as part of a charity motorcycle ride near High Prairie, Alta.
The Red Road to Healing bike run was raising awareness and money to help people experiencing homelessness on Treaty 8 territory. Isadore was one of the organizers.
“He was always going out of his way to help anybody who needed it,” Powder said.
She was following the convoy of bikes in a separate vehicle, when she said she saw tragedy unfold just before noon on Highway 2 near Range Road 143.
“Suddenly, I saw the vehicle in front of the bikes make a sharp turn right and I saw the semi come through all the bikers,” Powder said.
