It’s crazy that in a span of 4 months u have 2 crashes. I lost a friend and this was very painful and I can imagine the pain the family and especially the husband is going through. Losing both ur wife and Son, how does one even recover from that!!!?

RIP Stella Adam, my condolences to the family and friends. My condolences also goe to all other families and friends that lost loved ones on that plane.
