BELDING, Mich. — Funeral arrangements for Devon Morrison, 10, have been set.

The boy’s body was found Monday in the Flat River. He’d been missing since Saturday. Devon’s mother said he went fishing earlier in the day. Police said preliminary results from an autopsy indicate that Devon’s drowning was accidental.

Viewing is scheduled for Thursday, September 19, from 3 p.m. to 7 p.m. It will be held at the Houghton Lake Christler Funeral Home.

Morrison’s funeral will be held Friday, September 20 at 11 a.m. at the same location.

The family established the Devon Morrison Memorial Fund, and donations can be made at any Independent Bank in Michigan. This will help the family pay for funeral and burial expenses.

FOX 17 learned that a memorial will be held Monday, September 23 at 7 p.m. in Belding.

A family friend of Morrison’s said the viewing, memorial, and funeral are all open to the public.
