[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm curious about the sister of the one survivor  - the one who also lost his mom and dad. His parents were recovered, but his sister was never found.  Any theories or thoughts on this? [/quote]She’s the other one I referenced above. They think she washed out to sea. I saw one article that said a helicopter saw a body floating in the sea, but lost sight of it in the rough swell. It was thought to be her. [/quote]

But my impression was that she and her parents were very close to the mouth of the volcano and nowhere near the water as the brother recounted his journey to go find help - how could she then be in the water? Perhaps my impression of what he recounted was incorrect or I misunderstood what he described. [/quote]I can’t find that other article that said the floating body was thought to be her, but this one gives their location and says the floating body was actually the tour guide. The last rescuer from the helicopters stayed on the island for a while to search for bodies, so I think this info came from him.

“Marshall-Inman and Winona Langford had been 800m away from the eruption, and 300m from the shoreline, but a violent rainstorm had swollen the stream near where they lay, and washed them into the sea.”
