Matthew Mullen Death, Accident, Obituary – An employee at a well-known family summer camp in California was killed in a “tragic accident” while hiking with his coworkers in Yosemite National Park on his day off, according to the officials who were aware of the situation. According to many media outlets, Matt Mullen, who was twenty years old at the time, was working as an assistant cook at Camp Mather, a well-liked family camp located close to Hetch Hetchy Reservoir.
During the summer months, hundreds of families from San Francisco spend time in the expansive park. According to a report by SFGATE, San Francisco Recreation and Parks did not disclose any details regarding the circumstances behind the accident that occurred on Thursday, August 8.
The mishap is currently being investigated. In an email to the publication, Daniel Montes, a representative for San Francisco Recreation and Parks, stated that “Camp Mather is a unique place where staff form close and lasting bonds quickly.” “It is inconceivable that a colleague could be lost in such a manner.”
The following day, grief counselors from the San Francisco Department of Public Health were dispatched to the camp in order to provide assistance and comfort to both the staff and the campers, as reported by KRON4. Mullen’s coworkers will continue to receive continuing help from the agency through its employee assistance program, according to the station’s report.
According to Montes, who sent an email to KTVU, “Matt will be remembered as an upbeat and adventurous person whose can-do attitude and willingness to help endeared him to both colleagues and campers.” KTVU received this information from Montes. During this trying time, our thoughts and prayers are with his family and friends.
