Family and colleagues are mourning the shocking death of New Orleans TV anchor Nancy Parker, who was killed in a plane crash while covering a story.
Parker, a wife and mother of three, was a respected journalist who worked at New Orleans' FOX 8 station for over 20 years.
"Nancy was an amazing person and I miss her like crazy. I will never get over this," Parker's husband, Glynn Boyd, wrote on Facebook on Sunday night."We were supposed to live this out until there were lines on our faces, from a life time of smiles. We were supposed to grow old and laugh and talk about times gone by."
Shortly after takeoff, the pilot radioed the controller in the Lakefront Airport tower and indicated he was having unspecified problems, according to the National Transportation Safety Board . "Nancy Parker’s enthusiasm for storytelling was evident in her work. Today was no different," Lemon said."She was looking forward to sharing a story that would help to promote the importance of a drug-free lifestyle. She was a journalist who knew the value of helping younger journalists excel and she displayed a nurturing spirit.”This picture says it all. This morning, we are missing our sweet Nancy Parker. She is gone from this world, from our newsroom, but never from our hearts.
