A former Owen Sound doctor is fighting for his life in a Florida hospital after a three vehicle crash north of Tampa Bay.
74 year old retired Doctor George Kuruvilla is in serious condition at Bayfront Medical Centre.
A passenger in his Mercedes — a 72 year old woman, believed to be his wife Elizabeth – was killed in the crash on Monday night.
The Kuruvilla’s had just recently retired to Florida.
Doctor Kuruvilla was well loved in the local community after spending years as an internal medicine specialist at the Owen Sound hospital.
Their two sons — Philip and John — are also doctors in the Greater Toronto Area.
The Florida Highway Patrol says the three vehicles collided at Trinity and Garden Lakes boulevards in West Pasco County around 9:15 PM Monday night.
An 18 year old Florida man involved in the crash is also in serious condition in hospital.
