The environmentalist and B.C.-based cinematographer was found at the Fisherman's Wharf Marina in Campbell River last Friday, September 15th.

Leni Goggins, Roscovich's step sister, set up a gofundme page a few days ago and already, the funds are pouring in.

In four days, family and friends have already raised $41,358.

The goal is to reach $50,000.

The money raised will go to a trust fund for Ruby Lynn Ross, to ensure she'll have financial support in the future.

"Twyla is so loved. This coast that she lived and fought for with all of her heart is now a lonelier place for her passing," stated Goggins.

So far, the page has been shared nearly three thousand times online.
