Tameka Foster, ex-wife of Usher, is honoring the memory of her late son, Kile Glover, by launching a petition to drain the lake that took his life. On Thursday, July 6th, exactly 11 years after the tragic accident on Lake Lanier, Foster took to Instagram to share the petition and remember her son.
“On this significant day, July 6, we remember the tragic accident on Lake Lanier that forever altered my life,” Foster shared in her caption. “My courageous son, Kile Glover, fought for two weeks with unwavering strength until his passing on July 21.”
On July 6, 2012, Glover was riding an inner tube on the lake when he was hit by a jet ski. Despite his efforts, he died from his injuries two weeks later. The family friend who was convicted of his death spent four years in prison.
Foster not only noted the lake’s “haunted” history that dates back to the 1950s when it was created over a former gravesite, but also called for improved safety measures, better zoning, and the removal of haunted debris from the lake. Her petition on Change.org has over 1,700 signatures towards its 2,500 goal.
Lake Lanier is considered one of America’s most dangerous lakes with around 700 deaths due to accidents and drownings. Foster's petition calls for Lake Lanier to be drained, cleaned, and restored with safety measures to ensure the safety of all individuals engaging in personal watercraft and recreational activities. She also wants stricter regulations and zoning for water-related activities and water safety education programs.
In conclusion, Foster expressed her hope that her petition will bring about lasting transformation and a safer future. She urges her followers to sign the petition and share the cause in order to bring a fresh start to a lake with such a deadly history.
