Brendan & Melissa Perrott Edmonton Family Of 4 Killed In Sunday Africa Crash GoFundMe

EDMONTON, CAN. (THECOUNT) — Brendan and Melissa Perrott, and their two children, Evelyn, 5, and Colton, 3, have been identified in a GoFundMe as the Edmonton family of four killed Sunday in a vehicle crash while visiting southern Africa, according to GoFundMe.

The family was on a missionary trip in Africa when they were involved in a head-on crash, according to family members and friends.

The Perrotts were killed in an accident near Bulembu, Swaziland on Nov. 3, says a GoFundMe campaign titled “In Remembrance of the Perrott Family,” which has thus far raised over $18,500 to help with funeral expenses.

A fifth person in the vehicle was also killed in the crash, as were four people in the vehicle they collided with, according to local newspaper the Times of Swaziland, reports CTV.

Family says the Perrotts were volunteering with Bulembu Ministries when they were killed.

The non-profit group’s website says it provides care for some 350 orphans and vulnerable kids in Swaziland and operates Bulembu Christian Academy.
