CORINNE, Box Elder County — The investigation continued Wednesday into the death of a woman whose body was found floating in the Bear River.

The Box Elder County Sheriff's Office called 26-year-old Nicole Barlow's death "suspicious" but declined to comment on a possible cause of death citing the ongoing investigation.

According to a GoFundMe page* set up by relatives, the Brigham City woman had been missing for a week before being found by a fisherman Saturday in Corinne.

"This tragedy has taken the wind out of our sails and we are beside ourselves," Carol McCray Haddock, Barlow's aunt, wrote on the fundraising site. "As we await any explanation of this senseless and untimely death of our precious loved one, I would like to ease her parents' minds somewhat by raising money to help with burial expenses and therapy for Nicole's sweet little daughter, Hadlee."

The circumstances surrounding Barlow's disappearance were not released Wednesday.

Anyone with information about the case can call police at 435-734-3857.
