Default ERAU Alumni\'s lost....

got this from another pilot family website...
__________________________________________________ _____________
Hi All,

An email from Embry-Riddle, thought some might be interested. Although DH is an ERAU alumni and we both worked there, we didn't know any of these 4 folks. What a Fall it's been for Embry-Riddle. Last month we lost two long-time faculty members, Michael Corradi and Bob Sweginnis in a mid-air collision while they were practicing for October's Prescott Air Show.

MESSAGE:

We have more sad news to report involving pilots with Embry-Riddle connections. Elizabeth "Liz" Morrison, 31, an Embry-Riddle graduate, died Sunday, Oct. 24 in the crash of Hendrick Motorsports Beech 200 King Air near Martinsville, Virginia. Elizabeth, who lived in Concord, North Carolina, graduated from the Daytona Beach campus in 1995 in Aerospace Studies. She was co-pilot on Sunday's flight.

We learned after informing you of the death of Embry-Riddle graduate Jonathan Palmer, first officer on the Corporate Airlines flight 5966 in Kirksville, Missouri last week, that the pilot, Kim William Sasse, 48, of Ramsey, New Jersey, also attended the Daytona Beach campus of Embry-Riddle.

Beginning with crash of the Pinnacle Airlines CRJ2 which took the life of Embry-Riddle alumnus Jesse Rhodes on Oct. 14, four pilots with ties to Embry-Riddle have lost their lives in three separate crashes in the past two weeks.

Embry-Riddle trains one in four pilots in the United States.
