ARLINGTON, Va. — A Virginia woman on her way to see her son, who had completed a Catholic pilgrimage, was among the 78 people who died in the wreck of a train in Spain, said Catholic Church officials from the diocese where she worked.
The Diocese of Arlington said Ana Maria Cordoba was killed. She was the only American who died in the crash.
Cordoba, a benefits specialist, was traveling with her husband, Philippe, and her daughter, Christina, a rising high school senior in Arlington, according to the Catholic News Service, a division of the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops. The service reported that her husband and daughter were in stable condition at a hospital.
