The family of a Penticton man who died in a motorcycle crash on Oct. 12 has started a memorial GoFundMe.

Steve Dahnert, 60, was riding his motorbike along Highway 33 when an SUV travelling in the opposite direction crossed the double-solid lines and collided with him.

Dahnert was taken to the hospital, where he later died of his injuries.

His daughter Siobhan Wyman started a gofundme campaign to cover any memorial or legal costs the family might have to face.

“My heart broke the day my Dad died and continues to ache as I see the absolute devastation that our family and his friends are experiencing from this unfair loss,” reads the GoFundMe page.
