I just learned over the weekend that someone I knew from my little hometown was one of the people killed in that plane crash in Maine. Didn't that have something to do with the weather? As in, the big national winter storm system creating conditions that should've precluded a little craft like that from trying to take off? I only heard just a little bit about it in the news and didn't pay it much attention.
Then I started seeing on bookface a bunch of people posting memorial-type stuff about her, and saw how she'd died. I didn't know her very well, and hadn't seen her in many, many years.
