NWT plane crash: Families of victims in deep state of grief in close-knit community

People in the Northwest Territories town of Fort Smith continue to support each other and mourn after six people died in a plane crash.

The Anglican Church in the community of 2,200 is planning to ring its bells every morning for six minutes.

The town’s three churches came together for a candlelight vigil Wednesday night, which included prayer, song, and calls from community leaders to support each other and stay strong.

"We had a lot of people who were in tears. We had presenters who couldn't speak, people who were singing and trying to comfort one another" said Susan Enge with the St. Joseph Parish Council.

"We are trying to grapple with it all" Enge added.

Meanwhile, families of the victims are trying to come to terms with the tragic loss of their loved ones.
