Jocelyn Reina was a flight attendant on Pan Am Flight 103. On December 21, 1988 thirty-eight minutes after takeoff from London, Pan Am Flight 103, en route to New York City, explodes over Lockerbie, Scotland, killing all 259 aboard and 11 on the ground, from a bomb in the luggage compartment made of Semtex, a virtually undetectable explosive. November 15, 1991
Two Libyan intelligence agents, Abdel Basset Ali al-Megrahi and Lamen Khalifa Fhimah, are indicted by the U.S. and Scotland. The evidence also suggested involvement by higher-level aides to Libyan leader Moammar Gadhafi.

From "On Eagles Wings":

"Jocelyn was born in Los Angeles, California where she attended John F. Kennedy high-school in La Palma and went on to Cypress College. She majored in drama and took classes in French language. While studying drama, she fell in love with Shakespeare. She made TV commercials for Fuji files and Disneyland, but found it hard to make a living acting in Los Angeles. She took a course in hair design by Vidal Sassoon and became a cosmetologist. A lifelong dream of becoming a flight attendant, however, eventually led her to fly for Pan Am.

When she was accepted by the carrier she found she could unite her dream of being a flight attendant with her love of Shakespeare: she was based in London. Jocelyn had eleven months of service with Pan Am when she died, six of those months she was happily based in London.

Jocelyn had a very winning smile and shared it with everyone. Her ability to stand out in a crowd was uncanny and she made friends where ever she went. She is missed by all those friends and her family. Jocelyn is survived by her parents, Betty and Ted Reina and a brother John.

A co-worker remembers Jocelyn's quick wit and zest for life:

Whatever she purseud, it was with intelligence and endless enthusiasm. You could not easily forget Jocelyn. I hope you were lucky enough to have met her."

She was a flight attended on Pan Am Flight 103 en route from London to New York City, who was killed when a bomb exploded while the plane was over Lockerbie, Scotland.

A fellow flight attendant wrote this on Airliners.net:

JOCELYN REINA, only 26 years old. She was the very first person I had ever hired as I began my wonderful stint as a recruiter for Pan Am flight attendants in December 1987. Jocelyn had yearned to become an actress and had studied make-up and hairdressing at the Vidal Sassoon Academy.
