Three members of the Michigan-based family featured on TLC’s reality show Meet the Putmans were recently killed in a car crash, and five other members were injured.
In a statement shared on Saturday, the family said its patriarch Bill “Papa” Putman, his wife, Barb – who goes by Neenee – and their daughter-in-law Megan were killed in a “tragic car accident” that was evidently reported the previous night.
“They have gone home to be with the Lord,” the statement added.
The family added that members identified as Uncle Blake, Lulu, Alena, Noah and Gia were also injured in the crash and remained hospitalized.
“We are asking for complete healing and strength for each of them,” they said. The statement also solicited prayers for the “whole family as we walk through this deep loss”.
