Jewish Woman Confirmed Dead In Buffalo Plane Crash

UPDATE 12:32PM EST: YWN has learned that a Jewish woman by the name of Susan Wehle was aboard flight 3407. She is reportedly the cantor at the local reformed temple.

The following info is from the Temple's website:

Cantor Susan Wehle has been serving Temple Beth Am of Williamsville, NY since November of 2002. Prior to that she was the Cantorial Soloist at Temple Sinai (Reconstructionist) of Amherst, NY for 9½ years.

She is the mother of two sons, one who is currently producing a photographic essay in Israel, and the other who is attending the University of Vermont â€" Burlington. Susan resides in Amherst.

UPDATE 12:36PM EST: Although there are other "Jewish sounding names" aboard the flight, there has been no confirmations as of this time. The Misaskim organization is closely working with federal, state, and local officials on this incident.
