That is absolutely heartbreaking. Losing a loved one is always devastating, but to lose so many family members at once—especially in such a sudden and tragic way—is truly unimaginable. The loss of Darren Bailey’s son, daughter-in-law, and two grandchildren in a helicopter crash must be an overwhelming tragedy for him and his family. A tragedy like this has to be incredibly difficult to process, especially with the added pressure of public life that comes with being a political figure. I can only imagine the heartbreak he and his family must be going through right now, and how heavy that grief must feel, compounded by the loss of so many at once.

Helicopter crashes, while rare, can be particularly traumatic, given the speed and violence of the crash itself. Do we know what caused the crash, or if it was a technical failure or some other reason? It seems like something that would have a lot of questions surrounding it in the aftermath.

This kind of tragedy always puts into perspective how precious life is, and how quickly everything can change. My thoughts go out to Darren Bailey and his entire family as they process this unimaginable loss.
