RedactedNarrative: Victim was canoeing across the lake to pick up his sister who he had dropped off earlier in the day to do some bear hunting. While in route to pick her up she heard Operator yell something to her from the canoe but she could not make it out. After a while she realized that he was not coming to pick her up. So she stayed overnight at the camp site until the next morning and walked half the day back to the campsite to where she had phone service to call 911. She could see the capsized canoe in the water from shore and believed at that point that Operator had drowned. 
   
  The DNR arrived and assisted with going out to look at canoe and saw Operator face down in the water near the canoe and two life jackets as well. He appeared to not be wearing a life jacket. His body was recovered by the Mecosta County Dive Team and identified by his drivers license that was in his pocket.
