LEXINGTON, Ky. (LEX 18) — 19 years ago, Jonathan Hooker and his wife Scarlett took off from Blue Grass Airport on Flight 5191, heading to California for their honeymoon. The night before, they two had gotten married, celebrating their new life together with family and friends.

"I remember Jon giving me this big bear hug when I left the reception, and said, 'Coach, as soon as I get back from the honeymoon, I wanna spend some time with you. I wanna talk about my future.' Unfortunately, that never happened," said Keith Madison, former head coach of the Kentucky baseball team.

Jon and Scarlett died on August 27, 2006 when the plane took off from the wrong runway and crashed into a field just a few hours after their wedding ceremony.
