The fire chief says the two along with the boy's father all fell into what they believed was a frozen pond.
Fire crews pulled all three out of the water but the father was the only survivor.
Crews tried to use ladders and a hook to rescue the mom, but they couldn't reach her and had to call in a boat.

Authorities say the son was the last out of the water.
They said they were from California," said neighbor Aaron Baylock. "And they don't get weather like this. And unfortunately, no awareness was just a bad deal."
The ice on the pond appeared to be less than an inch thick.
