The family of Jaiden Cottingham have expressed their gratitude to the Swan Hill community for their support after their 22-year-old daughter was killed when her car crashed into a tree at Pental Island in August this year.

Jaiden's mother Sam Cottingham said they were completely overwhelmed by the community's support and generosity.

In lieu of flowers, the family requested donations be made to headspace, a local youth mental health organisation.
