Education: Milwaukee Area Technical College
Lee and Lisa were ona long-delayedhoneymoon when they were among a group of tourists whose plane crashedinto a shantytown near Ciudad Bolivar, Venezuela. When they were married, the young couple was unable to afford ahoneymoon. Many years later,they were able to live their dream. 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. The wing was torn off on someslum buildings and the entire aircraft was subsequently engulfed in flames. In all, 24 people died. Their teenage children then went to live with their paternal grandmother, Karen.

Casualties included another American, Jason Hall, whose hometownwas not immediately available, and all four Venezuelan crew members, according to a wire service report. 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. "They said that my son and daughter-in-law were believed to have been on the plane," Arbour said. "They said there were no survivors." The American Embassy claimedtheir personal effects from a hotel. "They were on the passenger manifest," shesaid. "My son was supposedto call Friday, and he didn't." Since then, his remains have been identified. Lisa Arbour's remains had not been identified as of Sunday. "Itwas a honeymoon trip," Arbour said. "They had never managed a big trip, and thiswas going to be their honeymoon, the one they had never taken." The couple had been married 17 years and had two children, Nicholas,16, and Samantha, 13.Her son had previously worked for an international firm and had done some traveling, including to Brazil and Mexico.

"The wing tore off on some slum buildings. The rest is history. It went up in a ball of fire . .. "I guess that one thing we can hold in our hearts is that they were doing something they wanted to do . . . andeverything is in God's time, not our time." Charlotte Schaut, Lisa's mother, said her daughter and son-in-law were excited about theirplans. "They were so happy about this trip," she said. "And theyhad a lot and were planning to build a new home in Menomonee Falls this summer." Her daughter loved her job and being with people, she said. "I'd see herevery weekend," said Schaut."She'd see me and take me shopping. Lisa was very sweet. She'd do anything for anybody, just to help."Inaddition to their two children, the couple are survived by Lee'smother, Karen Arbour of Wauwatosa, and Lisa's parents, Thomas and CharlotteSchautof Milwaukee.
