UPDATE: 5 p.m.
Paule Seeger said her son was a social butterfly who was loved a lot.
㽶ƵֱHe was, he was an old soul. He was clever. He had a devilish grin and he loved his brother and he was very loved,㽶Ƶֱ she said at the vigil for her 15-year-old son Tristan who died after being struck by a vehicle on Oct. 21.
Seeger said it was his friends who planned the vigil and asked for those who attended to bring a stuffed animal.
㽶ƵֱThey have all come together and brought beautiful flowers and oh, that sweater,㽶Ƶֱ she said pointing to a sweatshirt that said law on it.
Tristin wanted to go to law school after he graduated. Seeger explained that the whole family was going to move to the U.K. eventually.
When asked about the disturbance at the vigil, Seeger said there should be no retribution for what happened to her son.
㽶ƵֱWhat we㽶Ƶֱre doing is we㽶Ƶֱre going to we㽶Ƶֱre share Tristan㽶Ƶֱs memory and the person who killed him may have killed him, but he㽶Ƶֱll never kill his memory,㽶Ƶֱ she said.
RCMP have not stated they have arrested the driver involved in the incident near Ben Lee Park on Saturday.
Those in attendance were angered and spoke of their frustration that Tristin had reportedly been fatally hit by a vehicle.
The case has been given to the Criminal Collision Investigation Team.
Anyone with information regarding the matter is asked to contact Kelowna RCMP or report anonymously through Crime Stoppers.
