Four members of the Weiss family, from Belleair, Florida—along with five members of the Steinberg family of New York—died when their single-engine plane crashed into a hill while traveling to San José, Costa Rica’s capital, on New Year’s Eve. The crash left no survivors, killing both families, two crew members and a 33-year-old tour guide.
Friends and colleagues are speaking out about the devastating loss, and say parents Mitchell Weiss, 52 and Leslie Weiss, 50, and their two teenage children, Hannah Weiss, 19, and Ari Weiss, 16, were a “caring family” who were passionate about their community and devoted to their Jewish faith.
