Young ice skating sisters killed in D.C. plane crash
The nation is grappling with the aftermath of a devastating aviation disaster that claimed the lives of sixty-seven people. Among those lost in the tragic D.C. plane crash on Wednesday night were sisters Everly and Alydia Livingston, along with their parents, Donna and Peter.
The Livingston family was among the many victims of this heartbreaking event. According to Pennsylvania-based news station WTAJ, they were on board American Airlines Flight 5342 when the tragedy occurred. Everly, 14, and Alydia, 11, were both talented figure skaters and dedicated members of the Washington Figure Skating Club. They trained at the Ashburn Ice House, a well-known gathering place for skaters in Virginia, where they honed their skills and built a strong presence in the skating community.
Their passion for the sport extended beyond competition, as they became widely recognized on social media under the moniker “Ice Skating Sisters.” Just five days before the crash, they shared a joyful moment on Instagram, standing in front of the ice rink at the championships with their ‘athlete’ lanyards proudly displayed.
