What was meant to be a joyful family outing — filled with laughter, campfires, and the simple pleasures of the outdoors — turned into an unimaginable tragedy for one family in Wales. On the night of September 14, 2024, twelve-year-old Kaicy Brown and his sixty-six-year-old grandfather, David Brown, were found dead inside their tent during a camping trip in the remote wilderness.
The pair had gone to sleep like any other evening, unaware of the invisible danger that awaited them. The heartbreaking discovery was made by Kaicy’s uncle, who had been camping nearby. When he found both Kaicy and David unresponsive, he immediately called emergency services. Despite the quick arrival and efforts of paramedics, nothing could be done. Both were pronounced dead at the scene.
The sudden loss devastated not only the family but also the entire community. Mandi Brown, Kaicy’s grandmother and legal guardian, now faces the unbearable grief of losing both her grandson and a family member in a single, tragic night.
At Kaicy’s former school, the news spread quickly. Phil Sherwood, his former headteacher, described Kaicy as a “bright, thoughtful, and caring young boy who brought joy to everyone around him.” He also launched a GoFundMe campaign to help Mandi through the difficult days ahead. “This is a desperately sad situation,” Sherwood said. “Kaicy had a gift for art, a great sense of humor, and a kindness that touched everyone. His absence will be felt deeply, not just in our school, but across our community.”
Friends of Kaicy’s mother, Jessica Brown, also began their own fundraising efforts to help cover funeral and legal expenses. “It is with a heavy heart that we make this request for our lovely friend Jessica,” the organizers wrote. “We just want her to have the space and support to grieve and honor Kaicy’s life properly.”
