Hincapie-Guerra, 29, was studying English at Everett Community College. She made friends easily there, inviting others to lunch or to go shopping. She and her husband, Hector Moreno, a 41-year-old Boeing worker, were killed in a small-plane crash in Nevada

over Memorial Day Weekend 2011. They’d lived in south Everett. On Tuesday, about a dozen friends from EvCC and English instructor John Bruemmer gathered for a memorial on campus.
