Six family members, including accomplished siblings Karenna Groff and Jared Groff, tragically died in a plane crash while traveling to New York. Celebrating Karenna's 25th birthday, both couples had plans for engagement, while their parents were respected surgeons. The crash occurred shortly after the plane's pilot, Michael Groff, reported difficulties approaching the airport due to overcast conditions, leading to a loss of communication with air traffic control. The incident left a profound impact on the community and families affected, as they mourn the loss of such vibrant lives.
"They were all so accomplished, but it was never about their accomplishments. Everyone considered them such a bright spot in their life. I'm sad for myself and my family, but I'm sad for everyone else who've lost them too."
"Piloted by Michael Groff, the plane left the Boston suburbs early Saturday morning, picking up Karenna Groff and James Santoro at Westchester County Airport in White Plains, New York, and then making the short trip north toward the Catskills."
