woman swept away during proposal

in Neskowin, Oregon, Scott Napper was about to propose to his girlfriend of 3 years, Leafil Alforque when a 3 foot high wave came and swept her away. Leafil was from the phillipines and had arrived 3 days before this event. As she was only 4'11 and 93 pounds, it was easy for the wave to sweap her away. Napper quickly called for help, and some arrived in minuites, but they were unable to find Alforque.

I think it's incredbly sad and funny at the same time that she was swept away jsut as her boyfriend was about to pop the question. Sad because now they can never marry, and her boyfriend will never see her again. plus her family will never see her again. But yet waht are the chances of getting swept away by a wave just as your boyfriend was goign to ask you to marry him?!!!! i mean it sounds like something from a cartoon or something! this article was on cbsnews.com.
