“The tip of the plane’s wing hit a boulder on the edge of Otay Mountain, and it killed everyone on board,” McEntire told Oprah. “When we were notified, Narvel went to our pilot and told him what had happened.”
“When Narvel returned to the hotel room where I was — two or three a.m. — and said one of the planes had crashed, I asked, ‘Are they OK?’ ‘I don’t think so,’ he responded. ‘But you’re not sure?’ I asked. ‘I don’t think so,’ he replied.”
According to McEntire, they were anxious to learn the specifics of the catastrophe.
“Narvel was going room to room with a phone, ringing…” she said, pausing as tears rose. “I’m sorry – it’s been 20 years, but I don’t think it ever stops hurting,” she added. “But, I can see that chamber. Narvel is pacing back and forth.”
Friends like Vince Gill and Dolly Parton offered McEntire their bands to finish the tour, but she declined. For My Broken Heart, her next album was dedicated to the band members she had lost, and it debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard Top Country Albums chart, selling four million copies.
On the anniversary of the tragedy, McEntire regularly pays tribute to those who died that day. She used Instagram to commemorate the crash anniversary in 2014. On the 25th anniversary of the tragedy in 2016, she took a memorable trip to San Diego and shared it with admirers on social media.
McEntire wrote, “Today is the 25th anniversary of the plane accident.” “In November last year, I returned to San Diego and took a helicopter to the accident site. I have a feeling they realize how much we miss them. My heartfelt condolences and prayers go out to all the families and friends.”

If you’re waiting for Jesus’ angels, you might pray or say something likе:
“Heavenly Father, as I wait for the angels of Jesus, I place my trust in your divine protection and guidance. Surround me with your holy presence and send forth your angels to watch over me and my loved ones. Grant me peace and assurance in the knowledge that your heavenly messengers are at work, carrying out your will and ministering to those in need. Help me to remain faithful and patient as I await the manifestation of your divine intervention. Amen.”
This prayer acknowledges the belief in the protection and assistance of angels sent by Jesus, while also affirming trust in God’s sovereignty and timing. It seeks comfort and reassurance in the presence of divine beings and invites their help and support during times of waiting and uncertainty.
