28-year-old employees died in the car accident with representative Jackie Walorski

Emma Thomson died in the same horrific car accident Wednesday that claimed the life of Jackie Walorski, a congresswoman from Indiana.

According to the Associated Press, the Elkhart County Sheriff’s Office was called about a two-vehicle incident shortly after noon.

When a car veered out of the center lane and struck the SUV Walorski was riding in, it killed Walorski, 58, Thomson, and staff member Zachery Potts, 27, of Mishawaka, Indiana.

The 55-year-old driver of the other vehicle also died in the incident, according to authorities.

Did Emma Thomson have a husband?

It is unknown if Emma Thomson had a husband when she passed away, leaving her family and parents heartbroken.

But until her horrific passing on Wednesday, Jackie Walorski was still married to her husband Dean Swihart, a teacher in the Mishawaka region. After some time, in 1995, the couple got married.

Jackie and Dean moved to Romania as missionaries and established a non-profit organization to help feed and meet the basic needs of the nation’s underprivileged children.

However, the two are believed to have lived in Jimtown, an unincorporated suburb west of Elkhart. His wife attended South Gate Church in South Bend, a sizeable Assemblies of God congregation.
