Adorable ice skating couple from Delaware are among youngest child victims of plane crash horror
Two of the youngest victims of the deadly Washington, DC, airplane crash have been identified as an up-and-coming-youth ice skating duo.
Youth ice dance partners Angela Yang and Sean Kay were on the fateful flight back from the US Figure Skating Championships and National Development Camp in Wichita, Kansas, with their coach, the Delaware News Journal reported.
Yang and Kay were killed alongside their coach, Alexandr Kirsanov, the coach’s wife, confirmed to the local news outlet.
They were members of The University of Delaware Figure Skating Club, according to social media posts from the organization.
‘We have Angela Yang/Sean Kay & Zoe Stone/Jerry Stone heading to Wichita for National Development Camp with Emmanuel Savary competing in the Championship Men event,’ the club said on January 21.
Yang shared several pictures from her time in Wichita just hours before the doomed flight.
‘Had so so much fun at camp!!! I’m really gonna miss my friends and all the great coaches! I can’t wait for next year!’ she said.
‘It was a lot of fun watching all the skaters at Kansas! I had a lot of fun sitting with my friends watching amazing skaters! I wish I could watch it all over again!’
