The single-engine Pilatus PC-12/47E turboprop airplane crashed in Wyoming last Friday, killing the 7 people onboard, including three members of the Nelons’ gospel music group. National Transportation Safety Board spokesperson Keith Holloway, promised that an investigation is ongoing.
Nelons’ co-founder, Kelly Nelon Clark, her husband, Jason Clark, and their daughter, Amber Nelon Kistler, were the three victims of the crash. Leaving behind their other daughter Autumn Nelon Streetman, who is currently pregnant.
According to the former NTSB, FAA, and U.S. Air Force Crash Investigator, who is also an Aviation Psychologist and author of Requiem for Camelot, Dr. Alan Diehl, those who died in the crash may have experienced what he calls the “dark terror.”
He compared it to his narration of what happened when John F. Kennedy Jr. crashed alongside his wife, Carolyn Bessette-Kennedy, and his sister-in-law, Laureen Bessette, in 1999. He explained that the victims may have already died from shock or fallen out of consciousness before the crash.
The Nelons started out in the ‘70s as The Rex Nelon singers, which was a branch of the Lefevres family. The group formerly consisted of others like Stan Whitmire, Vernon Lee, Jeff Stice, Rodney Swain, Martin Gureasko and a few other talents.
They have been nominated for awards like the Grammys, Dove Awards, Singing News Awards, Diamond Awards, Christian Voice Awards and Absolutely Gospel Awards. By 2014, the band was only made up of three now-late individuals, including Amber, who won Female Vocalist of the Year at the Absolutely Gospel Music Awards in the same year.
