The pilot of the plane died in the accident. He was identified as Eric Quentin Howlett, 47. Firefighters spent hours working to recover his body from the debris, and he was declared dead on the scene.
"Eric was a good husband, a wonderful father and a hard worker who dedicated his life to his family and church,'' said Amy McMarrow, whose son married Howlett's daughter. "He was just a good man who will be missed very much."
