Body of man who rescued toddler found in Cowlitz River

LONGVIEW, Wash. - The Cowlitz County Sheriff's office says the body of a man who rescued a 3-year-old girl from drowning in the Cowlitz River, then disappeared in the water, has been found.
The body of 20-year-old Alan Heck was found 50 yards down river from where he was last seen. --> more at link
What a truly incredible young man - to risk, and ultimately give his life to save a child unknown to him!
My heart and prayers go out to his family & friends, for their loss. raying:
May you Rest in Peace, Alan - a true hero!
ETA: Found another article that says the child was 9 years old; and that the earlier reported age of 3 was incorrect.
