Devyn Gale, 19, of the British Columbia Wildfire Service, died July 13, 2023, while responding to a wildfire. She and her crew were flown into a fire outside of Revelstoke, British Columbia, Canada, and while cutting a perimeter around the fire, she was struck by a tree and killed.
Gale, of Revelstoke, was studying to be a nurse while serving as a wildfire fighter. She liked to fill her backpack with textbooks and walk up and down a hill near her home. She was a member of Mountain Made CrossFit.
Gale is survived by her parents Graham and Philomena; brother, Nolan; and sister Kayln.
