Investigators say she wandered away from home and fell into the river. They think she may have been throwing rocks in the water when she accidentally fell in.
Since then, the teddy bear drive has collected stuffed animals every year for patients at Dayton Children’s.
Over the last two year, they have donated over 500 bears in Jade’s honor.
