Translated from Portuguese:
“Today is the saddest day of my life as a coach. I want to give my condolences first to the family of my dear athlete @daanischulzpro, with whom I had the pleasure of working and making her dream of becoming a professional athlete come true. Today the Lord called her to heaven and heaven gained another star. Daniela was going to make her debut in the first professional show of her life in Tupelo”
“To the entire NPC/IFBBPROLeague family, a big thank you because the IFBBPROCard was a dream of her life! To her beloved husband, with whom I had the pleasure of spending time. May God keep you by the side of your princess wherever you are. A big hug. Dani was going to shine brightly. She was beautiful.”
“Today, before your trip, I managed to wish you a good trip. It was very strange because out of the blue I sent you a voice message at 12:31 in the afternoon. Life is full of surprises. I want to thank @giegilli, without whom Dani would not have joined our team and would not have become a professional! Dani had a dream of stepping onto the Mr. Olympia stage”
“I’m sorry Dani, I didn’t have time to make you step onto this beautiful stage! See you soon, my dear Ifbbpro Daniela! Today, my entire team is in mourning. My wife, who took such good care of you and made you look beautiful the day you became a professional, is also very shaken, but we both feel a sense of duty fulfilled. I will continue to fight for many other athletes like you who dream of becoming professionals. Now more than ever, you will be immortalized on our team! May the Lord give you peace. See you soon!” – Robert Phil.
Daniela was working towards competing on the Olympia stage, but unfortunately, her dream would be cut short.
Daniela had just recently earned her pro status and was looking forward to make her pro debut in Mississippi next week.
The plane crashed in a residential area but no one on the ground was injured.
Officials say only one home in a local condominium complex was damaged.
Video showed a large area on fire and smoking wreckage in an area full of houses.
