A woman killed in an apparent shark attack was "following her dreams" and taking up surfing, a gut-wrenching Facebook post reveals.
Kristine Allen was snorkelling in Maui, Hawaii, with her husband when she vanished on December 8, with authorities later discovering part of a swimsuit and snorkel mask.
Witnesses, including Kristine's husband Blake Allen, claimed to have seen a tiger shark - an aggressive shark known to have attacked humans - swimming close to the shore at the time.
