Cedarville, Ohio. (KAKE) — Twenty-year-old Grace Maxwell was one of the 64 people onboard American Airlines flight 5342. She was flying back to her college in Ohio after being in Wichita for a funeral. Her family, friends and college community are devastated to hear of her death.

Can you imagine losing a parent and seven days later losing a child,” Cedarville University president Thomas White said of student Grace Maxwell’s parent.

If you gave her a single second to talk, she would tell you how much she cared and how her faith impacted her life,” one friend said.

A 20-year-old Wichita woman was on American Airlines Flight 5342 when it went down in the Potomac River Wednesday night. All 67 people involved in the crash are feared dead. Grace Maxwell was returning to school after visiting her home in Wichita.

A junior at Cedarville University who had reportedly just returned to Kansas for her grandfather's funeral is among the 67 feared dead in a plane crash.
