Wake, funeral Sunday for 2 victims of boat accident

OYSTER BAY

A wake will be held in Huntington for 11-year-old Harlie Treanor. In East Northport, friends and family of 12-year-old David Aureliano will come together at a funeral home.

Those two cousins, as well as 8-year-old family friend Victoria Gaines, died Wednesday.

They were trapped in the cabin of a yacht that capsized in Oyster Bay.

Twenty-four other people on the boat escaped.

Police believe overcrowding on the yacht may have contributed to the accident.

A memorial fund is being set up to pay for the funeral expenses for Victoria Gaines. People who wish to donate can contact:
