The Wourms Family

 

On Saturday, family and friends gathered in Assiniboia to say goodbye to Hayley and Cayden Wourms.  On Tuesday, a funeral service was held for Darren Wourms, the man accused of killing his wife and son, before turning the gun on himself.

The bodies of the young family were found in a ditch near St. Walburg May 28th.  Police are calling the case a murder-suicide and family members say Darren's mental health had deteriorated in recent months. They mentioned medication, professional care and even hospitalization to deal with depression.

Hayley was originally from Assiniboia where residents are still finding it difficult to come to grips with what happened.
