UPDATE: The body of Jerry Greer, 19, has been recovered from Kentucky Lake, according to Tennessee Wildlife Resources Agency.
Greer, the son of country singer Craig Morgan, went missing Sunday while tubing with a friend on the Tennessee River.
Witnesses say Greer was wearing a life jacket at the time.
A candlelight vigil was originally planned for Monday night, but has been cancelled out of respect to the families.
ORIGINAL: Jerry Greer, the 19-year-old son of country singer Craig Morgan and wife Karen, is missing following a boating accident over the weekend.
In earlier reports, Humphreys County Sheriff Chris Davis said two teens were tubing on the Tennessee River near Kentucky Lake Sunday when they fell into the water. Greer, who witnesses said was wearing a life jacket, never resurfaced.
Davis said crews worked throughout the night and additional resources were requested from other rescue organizations beginning at 6 a.m. Monday.
Dickson County Underwater Search and Recovery, the Tennessee City Volunteer Fire Department and the City of Dickson Fire Department personnel also assisted throughout the night.
Greer, a recent graduate of Dickson County High School, was close with his dad — an Army veteran who has had several hits including “Tough,” “Almost Home,” “That’s What I Love About Sunday” and “International Harvester.”
Morgan is the host of “Craig Morgan All Access Outdoors” on the Outdoor Channel. The show takes Morgan on adventures around the world, and Greer sometimes went with him. The program’s website shows Morgan and Greer posing with a goat they shot in Hawaii.
Greer is one of Morgan’s four children.
A call was first placed to the county dispatch for help at about 4 p.m. Sunday.
In addition to Humphreys and Dickson county first responders, the Tennessee Highway Patrol and the Tennessee Wildlife Resources Agency are also involved in the search.
