Friends are remembering the Canadian woman killed in Monday's floatplane collision in Alaska as an accomplished taekwondo martial artist looking forward to the next stage of her life. Elsa Wilk, 37, who grew up in South Africa but lived in Port Coquitlam, B.C., was named as one of six people killed after two sightseeing planes collided above open water in Alaska. Elsa Wilk was an accomplished taekwondo artist, regularly participating in competitions. Mark Pashley, centre, said Elsa Wilk, right, was dedicated to taekwondo. "She touched so many lives that are better for meeting her and there are a lot of people who lost an amazing friend, competitor, teammate and companion."
