JUNCTION CITY (AP) – Funeral services are pending for six members of the Junction City family killed when the single engine plane they were in crashed in Florida.

Junction City businessman Ron Bramlage, his wife and four children were heading home from the Bahamas when the small plane they were in crashed Thursday in central Florida. Officials said all six family members died in the crash.

The Rev. Al Brungardt, pastor of St. Francis Xavier Parish, said Friday that the family attended services there weekly and Ron Bramlage was a member of the parish council.

Brungardt said he hasn’t heard from the other family members about funeral services. But he expects the church, which holds about 500, will be too small for the family’s services.
