I know the names ...and will not say. Godspeed to all family and friends!

It's a really bad day for skydiving... Two very experienced skydivers are gone. Unsure

Although I did not personally know the jumpers in Dublin, my heart is severely hurting. I lost a friend today in a canopy collision in Texas as well. Three in one day is too much for me to take in.

I hope all three of them are flying free. Blue skies and rest in peace.

I worked with Bob at CPS and he is one of the nicest guys you could ever know. He was a retired Air Force PJ. Bob was always willing to help anyone.

My deepest condolences to friends and family. Know that they did not die alone. Each had a team of very desperate, caring people doing everything possible to save them.

What heart breaking news.
Danny was one of my AFF Instructors and a friend to many. He will be missed.
I pray for peace to come to the families and close friends of both men.
