Todd Meadows, a 25-year-old deckhand who appeared on the Discovery Channel's Deadliest Catch, has died. His passing was announced by Captain Rick Shelford, who said Meadows died on Feb 25. An official cause of death has not been released.
Shelford shared the news in a Facebook post on March 2, calling the day 'the most tragic day in the history of the Aleutian Lady on the Bering Sea.' He wrote, 'We lost our brother, Todd Meadows,' remembering the young fisherman as the newest member of the crew who 'quickly became family.'
The Discovery Channel released a statement saying, 'We are deeply saddened by the tragic passing of Todd Meadows. This is a devastating loss, and our hearts are with his loved ones, his crewmates, and the entire fishing community during this incredibly difficult time.'
A GoFundMe campaign has been launched with a $16,000 goal to support Meadows' three young sons and assist with funeral expenses.
