She said, while all devastated, the family had rallied together to support each other.
"We have family flying in from Mount Isa, Brisbane, Canberra. I haven't been off the phone this morning, family and friends have all been calling. It does bring family together.
"We are still in the process of arranging the funeral but he will be going to White Haven [Funeral Home] to lie in state. That's where his father's aunt and uncle were so it's appropriate he goes there."

The person was the only occupant in the vehicle, she said.
An investigation into the circumstances of the crash is ongoing.
