A Birmingham attorney died Sunday while kayaking at DeSoto State Park.

DeKalb County, Alabama  Coroner Tom Wilson said Jennifer Carin Burford, 48, died following an incident on Little River at the park when her kayak overturned while she was out with a group.

According to her obituary, Burford was a member of the Birmingham Kayak Club and was an instructor for other kayakers. She had recently returned from a kayaking trip to Ecuador.

“Carin was never afraid of a new adventure and for anyone who knew her; no broken bones would stop her from continuing the sport she loved so much,” her obituary reads.

Funeral services will be Wednesday at Watermark Church in Jackson, Ga.
