Last Tweets - RIP Ginny Doyle and Natalie Lewis

#1 Post by SpacemanSpiff » Sat May 10, 2014 5:42 pm

A couple of instagrams directed from Twitter for Ginny Doyle, who was the Associate Head Coach of the University of Richmond Women's Basketball team. These were the last things on her Twitter account.

The picture in the lower link is of Natalie Lewis, the Director of Basketball Operations for the UofR Women.

Sadly, they were the passengers in the balloon accident that happened here last night. As of now, the pilot nor the balloon nor the gondola have been found.

RIP to both of them.

What is creepy, to me anyway, is I was going to put "I'd love ride in a ballon" on my J! aud write-up form but as this is not something that hard to find an opportunity for or expensive to do, I didn't put it. I'd still like to ride in a balloon. I think.


How terrible this happened.

Today's news said the body of the pilot and one of the passengers has been recovered; they are withholding identification of which passenger.

This story is getting extra coverage in our area, as Ginny is from Philadelphia and the pilot, Daniel Kirk, is from nearby Delaware.
