beloved family members. Our daughters, Madita (12), and Annik (10), along with their father Christian, were returning from a holiday in the Caribbean when the single-engine plane they were traveling in experienced engine trouble and fell into the ocean.”
The post also writes about each of the young daughters killed in the crash, starting with Madita. It says, “Madita, a vibrant 7th-grade student at Louis Armstrong Middle School, was known for her lively spirit and excelled in academics, dance, singing, and performances.”
About her other daughter, Annik, she said, “Annik, a 4th-grade student at Wonderland Ave Elementary School, was recognized for her gentle yet strong demeanor. She was always the first to offer a kind word or a comforting hug. Her passions included basketball, swimming, and various forms of art.”
The post ended by asking for privacy while the family mourns following the horrendous loss of life that Jessica and her relatives endured. While the unimaginable loss of life is surely taking its toll, her insistence on focusing on remembering the happy moments with her family is truly inspirational.
