Contas said troopers don't believe speed was a factor, and he said troopers weren't sure yet whether or not Lund was wearing a seat belt.

"Obviously, the cause of death is still under investigation. The medical examiner is still trying to figure out if this was medically-related or if she did die from injuries sustained in the crash," he said.

Moody Connolly, 181 S. Caldwell St., Brevard, is handling the funeral arrangements. According to its website, a celebration of life service will be held for Lund at 1 p.m. May 4 at the funeral home.
