Taylor John Gostick, M.B.
Medal of Bravery

On March 18, 2011, 15-year-old Taylor Gostick rescued his grandfather from a possible drowning in Lake Manitouwabing, in McKellar, Ontario. Taylor had been riding on his snowmobile when he saw his grandfather break through the ice on his ATV. Taylor ran to help, but also fell in. He quickly got out and, even though the ice kept breaking around them, he managed to grab the victim and pull him a safe distance away.
