Doctor Pens Farewell Minutes Before Mich. Plane Crash

Wednesday, July 28, 2010


Rescuers, searching for the bodies of four people presumed dead after their propeller plane crashed in Lake Michigan, found a heartbreaking memento -- a moving farewell penned by a doctor aboard the plane just moments before it fell out of the sky.

Floating amid the wreckage of the crashed Cesna, searchers found the letter in a waterproof medical bag belonging to Dr. James Hill – the handwriting virtually inscrutable to all but one person, Hill's wife Ann.

"Dear All," read the note. "We love you. We lost power over the middle [of] Lake Michigan and turning back. We are praying to God that all [will] be taken care of. We love you. Jim," read the note released by Ann Hill to the Morning Sun, a Michigan newspaper.
