Irvine and the CRV’s driver, Steven Klase, 25, were rushed to the hospital. Klase has since been released from the hospital.
Irvine, 63, remained in critical condition for days, and his family moved him to a hospice care facility last week. He died Friday.
“For weeks we had friends and family come pouring into our home, the hospital, and our lives to share their love and support for my dad,” according to a statement from Irvine’s family. “We find peace in knowing that he is no longer in pain, but know that we will never stop missing him.”
Police say Joshua C. Frahm, 28, was driving the Ford F-150 pickup that fled the scene of the crash. Frahm appeared in court last week on suspicion of two counts of vehicular assault, one count of felony hit-and-run and one count of filing a false report. After the collision, he falsely reported his truck had been stolen the day before, according to court documents.
Irvine’s family is accepting donations to cover the medical costs associated with his care. Those donation can be made online at www.gofundme.com/ig105w.
