Slater Harkleroad was 20 years old when he was drowned in Lake Michigan at Michigan City Lighthouse. The drowning happened at around 7:30 pm on Friday evening. According to the report, two young males were taking a walk along the breakwall when they both fell into the water after being knocked over by huge waves. One of them was able to swim back to the shore and throw the life ring to his friend but Slater went underwater and didn’t resurface. He was later discovered by U.S. Coast Guard and was taken to Franciscan Health Hospital where he was pronounced dead.

Slater Harkleroad is my baby and I’m lost without him 💔 He was a warm and loving person. He would light up the darkest of days. With a golden aura and huge smile, he touched so many hearts, even the hardest. He saw no strangers only new friendships. Slater changed a lot in this world with such little time, and I am Truly blessed to always be his mama ❤
