    The death toll is now 7.

    Meagan Toothman, 24, was on life support after the accident and her family said in a posting on the CaringBridge website that her organs would be donated on Monday "to provide gifts of sight, health and life to dozens who are in need."

    "Late last night it became apparent that our Meagan was no longer with us," the family statement said. "The decision was made to allow her to be at peace."

    Toothman was the cheerleading coach at Turpin High School in Cincinnati.

    Don't wait until tomorrow - the hands may then be still.

    Very sad. Seems like the best & the brightest were lost in the accident.
    First hand accounts are coming out slowly with gruesome details of what
    some witnessed. One woman was cut completely in half by the steel beams.
    I think many folks will need counseling to deal with what they went through.
