On the evening of January 29, tragedy struck near Washington, D.C., when a devastating plane crash claimed the lives of all 67 passengers aboard. Among them were 42-year-old Justyna Beyer and her 12-year-old daughter, Brielle, whose bright future was cut short just as she had reached a major milestone in her young life.
Brielle, a resilient cancer survivor, had recently fulfilled her dream of joining the U.S. Figure Skating National Development Camp, a testament to her determination and love for the sport. Her father,
Andy Beyer, was on his way to the airport, eager to reunite with his wife and daughter, when the unthinkable happened. Instead of welcoming them home, he was met with heartbreaking news that shattered his world.
The figure skating community, deeply affected by the loss of one of its promising young athletes, has rallied around the grieving family. In an effort to provide support during this unimaginable time, a GoFundMe campaign has been launched, offering a way for friends, loved ones, and well-wishers to extend their condolences and financial assistance.
