I saw Patricia’s interview on CNN news when she first learnt of the missing flight… when there was still hope that she would see her husband again. It was evident from the way she spoke that her family was her life… There is nothing anyone can say to lessen the horrific injustice and i cannot imagine what her family is going through but having eventually found her husband i hope this helps their family begin to get through an extremely difficult period in their life. My heart goes out to them. I wish they had managed to recover all the victims of this disaster.
I was hoping for a miracle that everyone on the two planes will be found safe and well. What a loss. Tears as I write this. If only they had recovered all the bodies of the victims. May the Lord greatly comfort the families of the victims and reach out to them especially during this period of grief.
Fortune,
You don’t recover from a plunge like that (40,000 ft).
There was not a chance they would recover any survivor.
The fact that they even recovered some bodies is a miracle in itself. And yet, there was one lone survivor in the Comorian crash two weeks ago. One never knows.
Prayers to all, victims and families.
P.
I am still saddent by the aircrash.i still folow up n read bout new findings.i pray God’s comfort 2 all the families that lost there loved ones.may God’s peace that passes all understandng be with u.
I still think about this frequently, the memories of the wonderful people who lost their lives as well as their families suffering somewhere out there in the world stays with me constantly. I pray and hope that the lord will confort them and help them carry on. My heart goes out to all the victims and their families, you are not forgotten!
RIP to all the passengers and the crew. I usually don’t get so emotional about tragedies taking place but for some kind of reason this particular plane crash really got me. I pray to God to comfort and be there for the family members for they lost a big part of their lives. Let’s not forget that with each plane crash that happens, aviation gets safer and safer by learning all the possible mistakes that could happen.
Rest in Peace, you will never be forgotten (F)
