More heartbreak as 16th person passes. RIP Dayna. :heart:

Dayna Brons, the lone woman aboard the Humboldt Broncos' team bus when it collided with a transport truck on April 6, has died.
Family and friends had been waiting anxiously, hoping the 25-year-old athletic therapist would pull through after she suffered serious head trauma, relative Dale Brons told The Canadian Press on Tuesday.

At that time, he said she had undergone two surgeries, and was on a breathing apparatus.
However, on Wednesday afternoon, her family confirmed in a statement that she had died peacefully.
"She was surrounded by those she loved and those who loved her," the statement said. "Dayna will be forever remembered for her joyful smile, and her passion and love of sport."

Hope in Humboldt: Parents of Jacob Leicht find purpose in the face of tragedy | The Hockey News

In the meantime, Kurt and Celeste Leicht have been spending much of their time taking Jacob’s friends and teammates for private viewings before the funeral, even taking the faithful family dog Sadie along to say goodbye. And this is how strong they are. They wanted their son’s surviving teammates to have license to move on.
“We went around and tried to see all of them at the hospital,” Kurt said. “And we just told them, ‘Be thankful. No regrets. Don’t be mad because somebody else passed away.' We wanted to show our support. A hug back and forth goes a long way. I told them, his friends and the boys in the hospital, ‘Jacob just would have got out there and tried harder and worked harder.’ ”

Wow :cry:
