HALIFAX — A procession honouring the Canadian Forces Snowbirds aerobatic team member who was killed in recent a plane crash made its way through the streets of Halifax Sunday afternoon.

The procession was live streamed and can be viewed below.

Casey was transported back to her home province of Nova Scotia this week in a Hercules military aircraft.

The 35-year-old public affairs officer was killed last Sunday when the Tutor jet she was a passenger in crashed in Kamloops, B.C..

Casey’s family says her beautiful smile and infectious personality made her the ideal person to carry out the Snowbirds’ cross-country mission to boost Canadians’ spirits during a time of uncertainty.

Her favourite things included the Montreal Canadians, The Tragically Hip and Star Wars.
