Lee had always wanted to see AngelFalls, the world's highest waterfall, located in Canaima National Park. Having seen the spectacularsight of the falls, Lee and Lisa boarded their return flight. Rutaca Airlines Flight 224 departed from Canaima inthe southern Bolivar state. The older DC3 refueled in Ciudad Bolivar and then took off for Porlamar on the Caribbean island of Margarita. On takeoff, one of the plane's engines caught fire and it was unable to maintain its climb over a small shantytown.

Their teenage children then went to live with their paternal grandmother, Karen.

Karen Arbour, Lee's mother, said Sunday that she received a call about midnight Thursday from the U.S. Embassy in Caracas, the Venezuelan capital.
