Decathlon Down in MS

I received a phone call this morning from a close friend here in town, explaining that his cousin and a passenger were killed in a plane crash just an hour prior. He was extremely shaken and caught the next flight out of town. Not much to say at this point, except that the families are in definite need of prayer.

The plane was a Bellanca 8KCAB, though misidentified as a Cessna in the news report.
