The Lawson family was flying home for the holidays. Instead,
what's left of the family now mourns four people killed when their
single-engine Piper went down near Brooklyn (IA) Wednesday.
Family members confirm Larry Lawson, 55, died in Wednesday night's
accident. Lawson had been a volunteer firefighter in Altoona since
about 1975. Other victims include Lawson's daughter, Lisa Lawson,
25, and his brother, Danny Lawson, 55, who was the pilot. The
fourth person was Lisa Lawson's friend.
