A Batavia family of four perished instantly when their mini-van crashed into a tractor-trailer on Route 63 in East Bethany.
The tragic accident occurred around 11 yesterday morning just south of the Little Canada Road.
Pronounced dead at the scene was 35-year-old Peter Boyce, of 693 E. Main Street, his 33-year-old wife Connie, 9-year-old son Alexander and 5- year-old son Bradley.
Investigators said the entire family was killed instantly.
The Boyce’s were northbound on Route 63 in their 2001 Chevrolet mini-van when it crossed into the southbound lane and hit the tractor-trailer. The truck driver, 47-year-old Brian Hack of Welland, Ontario, swerved to his right to try and avoid the crash, but it was too late. The truck, laden with two aluminum coils, went over a guardrail and ran down a 30-foot embankment. Hack suffered only minor injuries.
Connie Boyce worked for Cornell Cooperative Extension, the two boys were students at John Kennedy School in Batavia; Alexander was in the 3rd grade, Bradley was in kindergarten.
