LEXINGTON COUNTY, SC : 2 brothers killed in Lexington County crash were ‘inseparable’ on Saturday, December, 23rd 2017
Lexington, South Carolina
Two brothers who were inseparable in life were also together in the crash that killed them both.
Wade Epting, 27, and his brother Harley Epting, 23, died after a car crash near Gilbert on Wednesday, which was the elder Epting’s birthday, according to Lexington Coroner Margaret Fisher. The two were in a car driven by Wade Epting that crashed into a tractor-trailer turning left onto the roadway in front of them.
“He was my son’s best friend,” said Emily Edwards, 23, who has a 4-year-old son, Ayden, with Wade Epting.
Edwards said Wade Epting wasn’t “the type to go out and party,” but instead went to church regularly with his father and enjoyed the outdoors. After Ayden was born, she said, Wade included him in his outdoor adventures, even buying the toddler a smaller kayak that matched his.
