While on their first family vacation in Florida, six-time parents Brian Warter, 51, and Erica Wishart, 48, encountered an unbelievable tragedy.
On June 20, a tragic event happened when they were swimming off Hutchinson Island with two of their kids. Brian and Erica were left to the mercy of the strong ocean currents, even though the adolescents were able to rescue themselves.
Rescue efforts were started as soon as emergency personnel arrived. But despite everything they did, Brian and Erica were unfortunately declared dead at a local hospital, unable to be saved.
The water conditions were extremely dangerous on the day the couple perished. Red flags were flown along the beach, according to Cory Pippen of Martin County Fire Rescue, to warn swimmers of the hazardous riptide conditions. These flags are intended to alert beachgoers to possible aquatic dangers, like powerful rip currents.
After more than a year of dating, Brian and Erica got engaged. According to CBS 12 News, they intended to wed once their kids graduated from college. The family had been looking forward to this much-needed vacation for a long time. They took their kids along.
Brian’s father, Larry Warter, put their joy into words when he said, “They were so thrilled, they couldn’t see straight about going down.” It had never happened before. The experiment was this one. All six of their children were born together. It had taken them more than a month to plan.”
The overwhelming support that Brian’s family received from friends and relatives as well as the community left them in shock. Larry Warter conveyed his appreciation by saying, “Offers of assistance and other things have poured in.” We didn’t realize that we weren’t experiencing this alone.
A GoFundMe website was created in the couple’s memory, and Wayne Sallurday wrote a moving ode to Erica on it. He praised her as a remarkable individual, a devoted teacher, a caring mother, and someone who occasionally volunteered at her neighborhood church. He underlined that Erica was among the kindest people he had ever met.
Important information about rip currents is provided by the National Weather Service, which emphasizes that although they do not drag swimmers underwater, they can swiftly wear them out. In these kinds of situations, maintaining composure is essential.
It is advised on the website that swimming against a rip current will simply sap your energy, which is necessary for survival and escape. Avoid attempting to swim straight up to the coast. Swim parallel to the coast until you are no longer pulled by the current. Swim at an angle away from the current and toward the shore once you are free of its pull. Additionally, the service exhorts swimmers to always swim in pairs and to follow the maxim “If in doubt, don’t go out!”
This terrible incident serves as a somber reminder of the risks presented by rip currents and the importance of listening to safety advisories when swimming. Peace be with Brian and Erica.

12 Beauty Tricks That Make French Women Naturally Charming
In every country, women have their own secrets for how to stay young and beautiful. But French women have the most natural charm in the world because they somehow manage to look 18 at the age of 42, like Audrey Tautou. Of course there are no universal tips that can help everyone, but French women definitely have some useful habits that help them stay charming at any age.
Bright Side has discovered the secrets of the beauty routine that almost all French women follow.
12. They don’t use contouring.
French women don’t like contouring because it hides the natural features of the face and looks unnatural. What they do love is a little bronzer on the cheeks to make themselves look fresh and shiny.
11. They don’t mind imperfection.
If you take a closer look at French women and their style, you will notice that almost all of them prefer a little messiness. It may be about hair, it may be about their accessories, like a scarf, or the way their clothes are sewn. This allows them to look natural and free, as if they don’t do anything special to look beautiful.
10. They prefer red lips.
You can always brighten up your appearance by using red lipstick. Women from Paris are completely convinced of this: it does not matter what your style is, you could be wearing torn jeans and a T-shirt or a dress with a huge hat. But adding red lipstick will immediately elevate any look.
9. They don’t get French manicures.
True French women never have “the perfect manicure” that took several hours to apply. Because this would send the message that you actually had to spend an immense amount of time, and money, on something so small.
Parisian women think that it is unnecessary, because they were already born beautiful and they are not going to spend hours on something so trivial. So, the most popular nail style among French women is short nails with clear polish or no polish at all. The same goes for their pedicure.
8. They have a hair styling secret.
French women prefer to not damage their hair and they don’t use a hair dryer or a flat iron every day. They mostly use expensive products — all of them have their favorite hair masks, and oil for their hair, and also a good hairbrush made of natural materials.
This is what they do to hair in France: they wash it and let it dry without a hair dryer, and the next day, when it becomes smooth, they style it.
7. Their makeup bag is not full of products.
French women have only 2 lipsticks: one natural color, and a red one for a great mood or an evening out.
They choose a light powder and a foundation to make their skin shine. But they don’t reapply it every hour, mostly so they don’t look like a wall with plaster on it. Healthy skin is supposed to shine just a little. They consider this is beautiful and natural.
Eye makeup only means mascara on the eyelashes. In the evening, they might add a messy, smoky eye effect. But it is supposed to be imperfect with that French element of messiness.
So, the 6 products in a French woman’s bag include: a good foundation, a powder with a shine, a mascara, an eyeliner, and 2 lipsticks. Now that’s an idea everyone should try!
6. They spend good money on haircuts.
Women in France are sure of one thing: you can wear €10 clothes and nobody will ever know that they are cheap, but get a cheap haircut once and your appearance will be completely ruined. This is why they are ready to pay a fortune to a good hairstylist and they go back to the same person for many years.
Also, a good haircut doesn’t need any fixing, so you don’t have to style your hair every day, only on very special occasions.
5. They have a simple beauty routine.
If there is one thing a French woman really needs it’s expensive cosmetics like a good face cleanser, a sunscreen, and a moisturizer. They will often add different oils for body and hair to this list.
In France, women live according to “the less is more” principle. They use just a few cosmetic products, but the ones they use are expensive.
So, when it comes to peels that are used all over the world, French women don’t really use them. They prefer masks, they use them really often, and they use a lot of different kinds — because good masks restore and rejuvenate the skin.
4. They believe in natural eyebrows.
You will never see a real French woman who has very heavy eyebrows that are an unnaturally dark color. Instead, they take good care of their eyebrows, making sure that they stay healthy, big, and thick.
They may put a little makeup on their eyebrows, but most of the time they don’t even do that. They just use some gel for styling.
3. They don’t diet.
Not a single French women in her right mind would ever start a diet. They are completely sure: the short-term effect of a calorie deficit is not only not worth the effort, but will also damage the skin because of the lack of vitamins.
For them, the main secret to having a beautiful body is eating a little. They eat anything they want, but not a lot of it. And when they feel that they are full, they just stop eating, not feeling forced to finish the meal.
However, French women do try to avoid an excess of sugar in their diet because it damages the skin. But they are not afraid of foods with a lot of fat.
2. They believe in the power of cold showers.
French women know about the importance of having a cold shower after a hot bath. This stimulates the blood circulation and helps to keep the skin toned. As a result, they always look fresh and cool.
1. They accept themselves as they are, flaws and all.
French women rarely need the services of plastic surgeons. It is very unlikely that you will meet an actress, a model, or a fashion blogger in Paris who has a fake nose, cheekbones, or lips that have fillers.
French women learn to accept themselves as they are, flaws and all. This is what makes them so different and alive. This is why French women are always able to highlight their advantages and their uniqueness.
