30-year-old Kristina Quiqley of Greensburg died at a hospital from injuries from the crash. Quiqley was about six months pregnant, and her unborn child did not survive.

The other victim, 61-year-old driver Anthony Guaetta of Johnstown, was pronounced dead at the scene of the crash on the Pennsylvania Turnpike. Two other victims were flown to a hospital, and the other 19 people aboard the bus were taken to the other hospitals as a precaution.

Former Canadiens executive Frank Selke Jr, age 83. Mr. Selke was a tireless ambassador for Special Olympics Canada for more than 40 years.

The son of former Montreal Canadiens general manager Frank Selke, Frank Selke Jr. followed in his father's footsteps as an executive and publicity director of the hockey club from 1951 to 1965.

He appeared in the team photos of six Stanley Cup-winning Canadiens rosters, but never had his name engraved on the trophy.

Selke Jr. then served as the team president of the expansion Oakland Golden Seals, later called the California Golden Seals.

The "Baseball Annie" that inspired the movie "The Natural."

The Cook County Medical Examiner's Office confirmed Friday that (Ruth Ann) Steinhagen passed away of natural causes on Dec. 29, at the age of 83. First reported by the Chicago Tribune last week, her identity was a surprise even to the morgue employees who knew about the 1984 movie "The Natural," in which she was portrayed by actress Barbara Hershey.
