The victims of the horrific Florida Learjet crash have been identified, with a tech executive and his family-of-four among those who tragically lost their lives in the devastating aircraft disaster.
The family members of those killed have released a heartbreaking joint statement to RadarOnline.com regarding the loss of Adam Robinson, 45, and his wife, Helen Sharp, 40, their children, Emma, 4, and Charlie, 2, as well as nanny Anita Maria Apellido Cetina, and another couple, Rachael Reed and Charmi Fehr.
Family of Four and Their Nanny Killed in the Tragic Learjet Crash
Tech entrepreneur Adam Robinson, his wife, and two young children perished in the crash.
The group was flying from Austin, Texas, to the Bahamas when the jet suddenly nose-dived and exploded in a fireball outside Palm Beach, Florida.
Also killed were pilot Jeff Gregory, 55, and co-pilot Nathalia Gadelha Filgueiras, 20. A driver's dash-cam video captured the catastrophic crash, and dramatic cockpit audio revealed a terrified Filgueiras describing the plane in a plunging nose-first freefall.
“With broken hearts, our families share that Adam Robinson and Helen Sharp, their children Emma and Charlie, Rachael Reed and Charmi Fehr, and Anita Maria Cetina were among those lost aboard the flight that went down near Greenacres, Florida, on November 1," the statement began.
"Adam and Helen were devoted parents, and Emma, 4, and Charlie, 2, were the light of their lives," it continued. "Helen and Adam were the love affair that will last forever. Their warmth, generosity, and gift for making people feel welcome touched so many lives. Their loss will be felt deeply by all those who loved them and who they loved in return."
Robinson Family Nanny and 2 Friends Also Killed
Charmi Fehr and Rachel Reed were also killed in the crash.
"Charmi and Rachel were full of joy and adventure. They loved their people fiercely, fully, and without hesitation. From the moment they met, they were all in on each other and the life they were building. They are deeply loved, and we will miss them endlessly," the statement read.
Regarding the Robinsons' nanny, it continued, "Anita Maria cared for Emma and Charlie with tenderness and devotion, and she was truly part of the family. She showed us a legacy of unconditional love and devotion."
'Our Hearts Are With the Families of the Pilots'
Co-pilot Nathalia Gadelha Filgueiras was heard on the jet's radio in a haunting final message.
The devastated relatives went on to thank all who responded to the crash site, and mourned the deaths of Gregory and Filgueiras.
"We are deeply grateful to the first responders, investigators, and the Palm Beach County community for their care, and to everyone who has reached out with love. Our hearts are also with the families of the pilots, who are grieving alongside us."
The devastated loved ones noted, "We ask for privacy as we grieve. Details about memorial services will be shared once arrangements are made."
