Right before she took off on a flight that would ultimately result in her death, local sports reporter Carley McCord texted “I love you” to her husband.

The plane that she was on crashed, killing her and four other people, as it was heading from Lafayette, Louisiana, to Atlanta, Georgia, for LSU’s clash with Oklahoma.
