Erika Hoefer, 27, and a business reporter for the newspaper in Kalispell, Mont., died in a plane crash that was sight-seeing in the state.
Michael Jamison of the Missoulian writes, “Hoefer came from rural Wisconsin stock, Wolf said, with a firefighter father and a mom who worked at the local credit union. The family’s church has rallied in support, he said, and family friends planned to set up a bank account to help with travel and other costs related to the tragedy.
“Hoefer’s former Beloit colleagues were not surprised to hear she’d been taking in the mountain scenery from a small plane, and commented on her adventurous spirit.”
