The body of a diver who went missing while on a shipwreck diving trip off the shore of Chicago last weekend was recovered by a specialized team earlier this week, a search and recovery company said.
Wisconsin-based Bruce’s Legacy Search & Recovery said on Monday that its team was called to assist in the search for a missing diver who went missing on Sept. 5 while on a shipwreck diving trip roughly 20 miles offshore in Lake Michigan.
“After a very difficult search, we were successful in locating and recovering him from approximately 160 feet of water and returning him to his waiting family on shore,” the company said in a post on social media. “This search presented some of the most difficult and unusual challenges we have faced. Operating 20 miles offshore in deep water brings an entirely different level of planning, equipment, weather concerns, and safety considerations.”
Bruce’s said one of the “most difficult parts” of the rescue came after the recovery when they were tasked with transporting the body of the diver back to shore without assistance from local agencies offshore.
“In all the searches and recoveries I have been involved with over the years, I have never had to do that before. There is a much longer story behind this mission, and one I may share at another time,” the search and recovery company said in the social media post.
Bruce’s also thanked their volunteers, Great Lakes Search and Rescue, Wilmette Police Department and Wilmette Fire Department for their help with the mission.
“Most importantly, our heartfelt condolences go out to Michael’s family and friends. At the end of every search, this is what matters most — bringing a loved one home and giving a family the answers they have been waiting for,” the company said in the post. “We are grateful that Bruce’s Legacy was able to bring this diver home to his family. Rest in peace.”
