Williams, who was the only person in the plane, died on Thursday, less than a week after the crash. "Alan was a career pilot with a highly decorated 55-year career in aviation," his family said in a statement. "His love of flying was only surpassed by his love for his wife, children, and grandchildren. He was a selfless person who was always there to help those around him. Like the love he showed others, our heartbreak cannot be put into words."
