A flight attendant who was killed in the midair collision last week near the nation’s capital was set to be remembered for his devotion to family and passion for travel on Wednesday, as Ian Epstein's family and others start to hold memorials for loved ones who were among the 67 victims in the deadliest U.S. air disaster since 2001.
The celebration of life for Epstein is taking place at the Chabad Center for Jewish Life in Charlotte. The 53-year-old was a loving father, stepfather, husband, brother and uncle, with a career that afforded him the opportunity to connect with people and explore the world, his obituary said.
