CHANDLER, AZ — Hundreds of people gathered Saturday night to honor and remember a father and son who lost their lives in a plane crash in Mesa Tuesday.

Cars lined the streets at sunset near Grahm Kimball’s school to remember the 12-year-old and his father, Drew Kimball.

“They were so full of love, so full of joy,” said Kyle Worthen, a close family friend, remembering the pair as “some of the best” he’s ever known.

Drew and Grahm were among five people who died Tuesday when a small plane tried to take off near Falcon Field Airport in Mesa.

Worthen says the two were active in their church, loved baseball and the LA Dodgers, and cherished time with family and friends.

“It’s heartbreaking … when you see kids who aren’t going to experience many moments in life,” Worthen said.

The tragedy was especially hard on the Kimballs, who had recently suffered the loss of another child to suicide a few months before.

Worthen noted that this latest loss adds to the family’s pain, but said their faith will help the Kimballs get through this difficult time.

“They may be separated in body now, but not in spirit,” Worthen said.
