HENDERSONVILLE, Tenn. (WSMV/Gray News) – A mother and father are mourning the death of their teenage daughter.

Bentlee Whitley, 13, lost her life following an all-terrain vehicle crash during Thanksgiving break in Missouri. Her family says she crashed into a tree, and her chest was crushed, leading to a brain injury.

“Our hearts are just broken so bad,” Bentlee’s father, Malcom Springer, said. “We’re just trying to figure out how we’re going to make it as a family.”

The crash caused Bentlee to end up in the intensive care unit at a Memphis hospital. Her family made the difficult decision to take her off life support this past weekend.

“You feel like your best years are behind you because how can there be good years without her?” Springer explained.

It was reportedly the teen’s first time riding on an ATV.

A second person was also injured in the crash but was released from the hospital, according to the family.

The specifics surrounding what led up to the crash are unclear.

Bentlee was a dancer at her middle school and is remembered as outgoing and caring. In her final act, the teen donated her organs to save others.

“There are four other families that are very, very happy. She would have wanted that. We know that’s what she would want,” Springer said.

A fundraiser has been set up to support the family during this difficult time. They are holding a funeral service this upcoming weekend.
