Summary
Johan Moreno posted a family statement on Sept. 17 saying Eliana Moreno had pursued journalism since age 11 and thanking KNBC viewers for the support shown after her death.
The family said they took comfort that the 38-year-old reporter died doing the work she loved, and asked the public to keep pilot George Marciniw and bus-crash victims in their thoughts.
Johan Moreno separately warned that neither the family nor Eliana's fiancé is seeking money, saying any online donation pages are unauthorized.
The Sept. 15 crash in Chatsworth killed Moreno, Marciniw and 29-year-old tourist Edy Gutierrez Mejia after the news helicopter went down while covering a fatal bus accident; two other people were hospitalized.
