The mother of the 4-year-old girl whodied alongside her father while on a hike in Canadasays life has felt “like a nightmare” since she lost her “most wonderful, kind-hearted” daughter.

Jennifer Kagan is mourning the death of her young daughter Keira Kagan, who was found dead at Rattlesnake Point Conservation Area on Sunday with her father, Robin Brown. Both suffered injuries that were possibly consistent with a fall, authorities said.

Kagan said Keira was the owner of a shirt that read, “I’m going to change the world” — and the proud mom truly believed she one day would.

“She was that sort of girl,” she said. “And now I’m going to try what I can and do that for her.”
