The plane was en route to the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minn., with a cancer patient and four others on board, when mechanical problems caused it to crash July 23. The sole survivor, 66-year-old pilot Jerry Freed, was rescued that day.
The bodies of Alma school superintendent and cancer patient Don Pavlik and his wife, Irene, were found Friday and a third body identified as Dr. James Hall was recovered Saturday.
