The funeral for Kile Glover, the 11-year-old boy who died after being run over by a personal watercraft on Lake Lanier, will be today.
The accident was on July 6. Kile died over the weekend. He was the son of Atlanta television executive Ryan Glover and Tameka Foster, who was previously married to entertainer Usher Raymond.
The funeral will be at 11 a.m. at Wieuca Road Baptist Church on Peachtree Road in Atlanta, a spokeswoman for the church told the AJC. Willie Watkins Funeral Home is in charge of the arrangements.
Kile, who was wearing a life preserver, and a teenage friend were on an inner tube being pulled behind a pontoon boat during an outing with friends and family, according to the Georgia Department of Natural Resources.
The DNR said a family friend identified as Jeffrey S. Hubbard of Atlanta ran over the inner tube on a rented personal watercraft. Hubbard could face criminal charges, but he has not been charged, according to DNR.
The midafternoon accident left Kile in critical condition. He was unresponsive when pulled from the lake, and he and his friend were flown to Children's Healthcare of Atlanta at Egleston. The teen who was with him on the inner tube was later released.
