Burke Mountain Academy issued the following announcement.
The entire Burke Mountain Academy community was devastated to learn of the passing of Moriah Wilson ‘14. As a dedicated student, compassionate friend to all, and a courageous athlete, she exemplified the values that our school hopes to inspire in every student. Moriah was an inspiration to our community, and her death at a moment when her athletic star seemed so assuredly ascendant only amplifies the deep sense of loss associated with a beautiful life that ended far too early.
The Wilsons are a part of the very fabric of Burke Mountain Academy and East Burke. Our community mourns for their loss and will be unwavering in our support during their time of need.
- Willy Booker ‘96, Head of School
