    Very sad. Prayers going to her family & friends.
    Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away.

    What a tragic story!

    The really sad thing is there was nothing she could have done to have avoided it and it could happen to any of us ... no way of knowing the gangplank is going to break!

    That is really just too unfortunate. The poor woman.. Something similar like this happened on a local ferry ride.
