After the crash, Fuddy’s body was taken to a care home at Kalaupapa, where Killilea, the pastor of Kalaupapa’s St. Francis Church, said he made the sign of the cross on her forehead as she lay on a gurney surrounded by nurses and the distraught Yamamoto.
An autopsy was pending and the cause of her death had not yet been determined.
So that’s it for today. Eight were picked up, seven living, one deceased, and one swam a mile.
If we later learn that the pastor just so happens to be a blind man, I think I will feel a bit peeved about his account.
Yamamoto was seen being driven on Molokai that evening, wearing swimming trunks, according to one of the early reports, but this priest says that Fuddy was at this “care home” surrounded by nurses and the distraught Yamamoto, so neither of those 2 were among the 3 taken to Oahu by helicopter or the 5 taken to Maui by plane. So out of 9 people in the crash, we’ve got 8 people transported from the water to Oahu and Maui, 1 person who swam to shore and 2 who weren’t transported to either Oahu or Maui but went to the island they had come from and were at a “care home”.
So 11 out of the 9 people on board are accounted for...
