The loving family was found near the Merced River but they managed to make one final text before leaving.

This particular text message just couldn’t be sent out at the right time because there were poor signals in the area where the message was sent out.

“Can you please help us? No water or overheating with baby”- it went on to mention.

Just last fall, authorities and investigators made the decision that the family had passed away due to tragic circumstances relating to an extreme heat stroke.

The temperatures in California on that particular afternoon were described as scorching and had gone up to 109 degrees Fahrenheit as it was the steep mountain terrain and that particular family had also run out of water.

The message was pulled out from Jonathan Gerrish’s cellphone, months after the tragedy had taken place, as investigators worked side by side with the FBI forensics team to help solve the puzzling mystery.

Investigators also spoke about how the couple tried to make at least five calls from their cellphones to five different people but none of them managed to go through due to poor signals.
