There has been a change in the lawsuit filed against the wife of a pilot who crashed his plane into a Northwest Austin office building.
The attorney representing the family of Vernon Hunter is removing Sheryl Stack from that lawsuit on Friday morning. Dan Ross says Stack and her attorney have agreed not to contest the relase of the autopsy report for Mr. Hunter, the only man killed in the suicide plane attack against the Echelon Building last Thursday. Ross says the Hunter family never wished Mrs. Stack any harm, and have nothing but compassion for her and wish her peace.
People gathered Thursday evening to remember Hunter and the other people affected by Thursday's suicide attack. Across the street from the Echelon Building, people lit candles and stood facing the scene of the crash. Those in attendance also honored the survivors who found their way out of the burning building.
"I live close by, and I drive by here a lot, and everytime I do, I can't believe it happened," said Ginny DiMario, who attended Thursday's vigil. "It's still a state of shock and it's just tragic that it happened."
Funeral services for Vernon Hunter will be Friday at 11:00 a.m. Hunter, a Vietnam War veteran, will receive a full military funeral with honors.
