McCaskill Campaign Aide Among Those Killed In Skydiving Crash

Six people were killed when a small plane carrying skydivers crashed in rural Missouri yesterday.Â Among those killed was Melissa Berridge, who was working as the compliance director for the McCaskill for Senate campaign.

Berridge was a skydiving enthusiast and looked forward to her nearly weekly jumps.

We extend our heartfelt condolences to Melissa's family and friends, as well as the entire McCaskill campaign team.
