My heart goes out to the family, friends and fellow cast members of the victim. What a tragic accident...

From Don Neal on July 6, 2009 at 10:15 AM
Very sorry to hear about all of this. Our thoughts and prayers are with the family. And best wishes to the Disney "family" of team members as they work through all of this and try to move on.

From William Clark on July 6, 2009 at 10:29 AM
I would like to extend my sincere condolences to the family as well. These cast members work tirelessly to ensure that the guests have an enjoyable and memorable experience in the parks. Without exception I always have. Many times have I marveled at the efficiency of the Disney transportation cast members. They are quite simply the finest in the world when it comes to moving massive crowds of people.

Austin I salute you sir.

Rest in Peace.

My thoughts are with the family in this difficult time. I am also sending my thought to his WDW Family as they are also grieving the loss of a close friend and colleague.

From James Rao on July 6, 2009 at 12:27 PM
Ditto to what everyone has already written. Add five more prayers (one from each member of my family) to those already extended on behalf of the Wuennenberg family.

Nothing I say or do can alleviate the pain and anguish that the friends and family of Mr. Wuennenberg are going through. I can only offer my sincere condolences and deepest gratitude for a man who made the world a happier place for millions of people.

From Amy Tupper on July 6, 2009 at 3:24 PM
My thoughts are with Austin's family, as well as his friends and WDW co-workers. It's clear this young man loved his job and was a wonderful person. I'm sure he will be honored properly.

My thoughts are also with the driver of the Pink monorail, who must be feeling terrible after this incident.

Many prayers from the Jenkins family go out to this young man's family and friends. I know from my own life that God is the only one who can bring some peace through this loss. I would also like to send a "thanks" for his work and effort to make the happiest place on earth a little happier.

My heart goes out to everyone whose lives have been touched by this terrible tragedy -- the families, Cast Members, WDW visitors who were on the monorail and those who witnessed the crash... so many people are feeling so much grief and heartache right now. I will be keeping everyone in my thoughts and prayers.

From John Charlton on July 7, 2009 at 9:23 PM
To everyone touched by this tragedy, the prayers and thoughts of my family go out to you. While no words can relieve your grief and heartache at this difficult time, please know that we mourn your loss with you. God bless you, Austin. With deepest sympathy - The Charlton Family

After seeing the recent news footage with a guests video inside the cab and checking through my recent Disney trip pictures I am saddended to realise that my ride in the Monorail cab, just a few weeks ago, was with Austin.

I remember him being friendly and polite and extremely professional, obviously a guy who loved his job.

It was a pleasure to have travelled with this young man.
