Cherilyn McGraw won a trip to Australia on “Ellen” a few months back. Cherilyn and her husband, Gunnery Sgt. Brandon McGraw, took the trip last week. On Saturday, the two of them went skydiving in the same plane. Cherilyn made a tandem jump, but Brandon was experienced and followed by jumping solo. An employee from the skydiving school reportedly said just before Brandon landed, his parachute turned sharply left, then right and crashed to the ground. He was pronounced dead at the scene. Cherilyn posted a message on Facebook with photos inside the plane before the jump, saying, “My hero. My angel. These are truly such symbolic photos. He was happy and doing what he loved.” So sad.
