Two scuba enthusiasts apparently died aboard Flight 801

SAN DIEGO (AP) _ They were avid scuba divers traveling to Guam on vacation.

Brought together by their mutual love of the sea, Wendy Hope Bunten, a 37-year-old attorney and mother of two, and Sean Burke, a 24-year-old transplant from the Midwest, also apparently died together on a jungle hillside. They were not on the list of survivors of Korean Air Flight 801.

Only 29 of the 254 people on board survived.

``It looks right now like he didn’t make it,″ said Nick Shafranski, Burke’s roommate. ``He was going on a trip with a friend to the islands for scuba diving. ... He saw Korea and he was going on to Guam.″

Burke, 24, moved to San Diego last year with three high school friends from Minneapolis, including Shafranski. Burke was studying marine biology at San Diego State University and trying to break into modeling.

He taught scuba diving and worked as a waiter to support himself.

``He was generous and outgoing and he loved to travel,″ Shafranski said Wednesday.

Shafranski had never met Burke’s companion, Bunten, but a statement released by her family Wednesday said she was a trial lawyer with two children. Little else was revealed about Bunten, such as her relationship with Burke.

``She gave her all to family, friends and clients alike,″ the statement said. ``We would like her to be remembered for the generous and caring person she was. Wendy was a vivacious woman full of life.″
