“Throughout his life, Alex travelled extensively, reaching various countries and continents, where he tirelessly worked to bring faith, compassion, and support to those in need. His legacy of faith and compassion touched countless lives,” the ministry added.
The ministry said Serena Wurm, “following in her father’s footsteps, was a beacon of empathy and hope, inspiring all with her commitment to humanitarian work.”
Adding that, “Together, their final journey embodied selflessness and courage, reminding us of the power of service and love.”
Alexander and Serena Wrum are survived by their wife and mother, Candace, and two children, son James, 17, and daughter Christiana, 20.
The National Transportation Safety Board said it is investigating the cause of the crash. The plane went down about five minutes after takeoff from Fort Lauderdale Executive Airport and was heading to Sangster International Airport in Montego Bay, Jamaica.
