Disasters on the Lake Erie Islands – Adults
Tuesday, June 3 – 7:00 PM
Beautiful and deadly, the Lake Erie islands off the coast of Ohio have seen their fair share of disasters. The Victory Hotel on South Bass Island at Put-in-Bay was once the largest hotel in the nation. But the grand residence was reduced to ashes after a spark quickly became a raging, uncontrollable inferno. Reports of smallpox on Pelee Island resulted in mass hysteria and the quarantine of an entire island. At the Toledo Harbor Lighthouse, one light keeper was frozen in for days with his deceased colleague until he could make a desperate escape. Wendy Koile chronicles the fiercest calamities to shatter the tranquility of these solitary shores. Wendy Koile is fascinated with obscure Ohio and maritime history. She has authored four books focusing on lost tales of Ohio including Geneva on the Lake: A brief History of Ohio’s First Resort, Legend and Lost Treasures of Ohio, Disaster of Ohio’s Lake Erie Islands, and Lake Erie: Murder and Mayhem.

Brown was tragically killed in 2019 in Cleveland Heights, and his family had installed a $2,000 headstone in 2020 as a tribute to his memory. The desecration has left them in shock and reignited the pain they’ve carried since his loss.

Brown’s family has reported the incident to Bedford Heights police and is pleading for answers. Despite reviewing security footage, cemetery staff have yet to identify any suspects. The grounds remain accessible overnight through one open gate, raising concerns about security.

The family is desperate for information that could lead to justice, expressing deep emotional distress over the incident. What was meant to be a peaceful visit turned into a painful reminder of their enduring grief.
