Authorities identify three Marion County men as killed in Albany-area plane crash

The Statesman Journal has identified the three men killed in yesterday's crash of a Lancair ES that crashed after departing Salem Airport.

Those killed have been identified as Pilot Louis Jay Lamb, 49, of Sublimity and passengers Steven Teeney, 36, of Silverton and Riley Bunn, 32, of Stayton. In these small towns, the loss of these men has a great impact and generated sadness for these small communities.

We wish the pilot and the passenger's families our heartfelt best wishes during this difficult time.
