A search of Lake Limerick will resume Monday morning in
Mason County, after the body of a 2-year-old boy was found
dead in the water Saturday.
Jace Olson and his father, Sheldon, were last seen in a
canoe on the lake. The father is still missing.
The body of Jace Olson was found floating in Lake Limerick
at about 11:00 p.m. Saturday night after a canoeing trip
with his father. The boy was not wearing a life jacket when
he was found.
“We don’t anticipate foul play,” deputy chief Dean Byrd told
King-TV late Saturday night. “This appears to be a very well
adjusted family. Guests were at the house, it was Mr.
Olson’s wife’s birthday.”
The Mason County Sheriff and Mason County Coroner are
investigating the incident.
