A plane crash 30 kilometres west of Kelowna Monday, near Brenda Mines, has claimed its second victim.

Lauren Patricia Sewell, 24, died from critical injuries Thursday, the B.C. Coroners Service said.

The training coordinator worked at Kiewit Infrastructure Group for four years.

Her Linkedin profile lists her as a BCIT human resource management student set to graduate next year.

Sewell's organs will be donated, potentially helping six individuals, according to the B.C. Coroners.

The crash also killed 30-year-old Jayson Dallas Wesley Smith, reportedly her boyfriend. Two others were critically injured.

The Transportation Safety Board is investigating the Piper PA30 Comanche crash.
