D.C. Bar Mourns Attorneys Lost in D.C. Plane Crash

February 04, 2025

CandleWith deep sorrow, the D.C. Bar mourns the loss of three outstanding lawyers who were among the passengers in the January 29 plane crash in Washington, D.C.

Sarah Best, Elizabeth Keys, and Kiah Duggins represented the very essence of what it means to be a lawyer. Their passion, dedication, and commitment to justice were evident in every step of their promising careers, but beyond their exemplary professional endeavors, they have touched the lives of many with their generosity, integrity, compassion, and service to others.

During this time of profound grief, the D.C. Bar extends its support and solidarity to those affected by this unimaginable loss. May we find strength in our shared memories of the victims of this tragedy and honor their lives by continuing to uphold the values they held close to their hearts.
