A virtual tribute is planned for Tuesday to mark the third anniversary of the Humboldt Broncos bus crash.

Sixteen people died and 13 were injured when a semi-trailer ran a stop sign and into the path of the junior hockey team's bus near Tisdale, Sask., on April 6, 2018. Humboldt was on its way to play the Nipawin Hawks in an SJHL playoff game. 

The service from St. Augustine Catholic Church is to be live-streamed on the city of Humboldt's Facebook page. It's to involve lighted candles and tolling church bells, followed by a moment of silence at 4:50 p.m., about the time the crash occurred.

The mayor has deemed Tuesday as '2017-18 Humboldt Broncos Day' and would like to see that continued every April 6.

Greg Rider put a song together to remember the 16 that died in that crash and Darnell Duff will chat with Rider at 7:10 on Tuesday morning.
