Diver dies in Galapagos

I believe this may have been a dear friend of ours from UK, Donna, who died diving in Galapagos area on 6th October. We heard she was diving from a boat some 200 miles from Ecuador and did not surface from a dive, but was found soon after.
There appears to be a lack of information about the incident and friends and family would like to know more to piece together her last hours. I have a little experience of diving following SAA training some years ago and wonder if she was with a buddy?
Donna was a wonderful, fun-loving person who had so many friends who will miss her.

On behalf of Scuba Board, I'd like to extend our condolences to you, Donna's family and Donna's friends. News like this affects us all especially when a fellow diver passes.

Condolences.

Any answers you get I know will be gratefully received on this board. Information and data is very hard to find and every little bit helps us avoid future problems.

Your friend at least died doing something she loved. I hope that at least lessens the pain even a small bit.

John

I'm sorry to hear about this, it is always a tragedy when the sport that we love so much takes somebody away from us. RIP
