A CSU student has died in a plane crash in Nepal, leaving a hole in the hearts of those who knew her.

Rojina Shrestha, along with her mother, father and younger sister, were among 22 people killed in her home country of Nepal on May 29, according to media reports.

The flight left the resort town of Pokhara, 125 miles west of Kathmandu, according to media reports. The plane was on a scheduled 20-minute flight to the mountain town of Jomsom when it crashed near the town in an "area of deep river gorges and mountains," according to an Associated Press story about the crash.

According to a preliminary investigation by the Civil Aviation Authority of Nepal, or CAAN, bad weather was the reason behind the crash of the Tara Air turboprop Twin Otter.
