A second victim in Monday’s tragic Boston Marathon bombings has been identified: Krystle Campbell, a 29-year-old originally from Medford, Mass. Her father, William A. Campbell Jr., told Yahoo News: “My daughter was the most lovable girl. She helped everybody, and I’m just so shocked right now. We’re just devastated. She was a wonderful, wonderful girl.” “Always willing to lend a hand.” Krystle Campbell was at the finish line with a friend, Karen Rand, to cheer on her boyfriend, who was running the race at the time the bombs went off. Karen Rand survived, but was in surgery for her serious injuries. Krystle was then declared missing, and the family found out on Tuesday she was among the dead. More than 170 people were wounded in the attack. Campbell attended the University of Massachusetts-Boston and Medford High School. The other identified victim is 8-year-old Martin Richard, below: Our thoughts and prayers go out to the victims’ families.
