A Texas couple and their two young children are missing after their boat capsized over the weekend in Alaska. The missing family was identified as David and Mary Maynard and their children Colton and Brantley. They were giving and loving people and it’s just a horrible tragedy, a horrible tragedy," Mary's aunt, Christi Wells said. Alaska State Troopers and multiple good Samaritan vessel crews assisted the Coast Guard in searching for the family.
