A Brooklyn Park homeowner is lucky to be alive after a small plane crashed into his house on Saturday.

“You know, I thought back about the sequence of events, when all hell broke loose, that I realized how quickly everything got engulfed in fire. And how close I came to not getting out of the house,” Ken Tobacman said in an interview with Good Morning America. The home is considered a total loss.

“I was sitting at the counter in the kitchen and all of a sudden there’s a big boom,” Tobacman added. “The lights went out, and I saw a flash.”

Federal officials will return to the scene of the crash on Monday to comb through the wreckage piece by piece as part of their investigation into what caused the plane to crash.

US Bank on Sunday said it believes that Terry Dolan, 63, is believed to be the only person on-board the plan that took a nosedive out of the sky Saturday afternoon in Brooklyn Park.

He served as the company’s Vice Chair and Chief Administration Officer.

Not long after learning of the fiery crash, messages of gratitude and grief have been pouring in for Dolan.

“Fond memories for a wonderful man with a kind heart, a deep soul, and a brilliant and creative mind,” said former CEO of Catholic Charities, Tim Marx.

Marx worked closely with Dolan for years. According to US Bank, Catholic Charities is just one of a half-dozen organizations he volunteered for, ranging from affordable housing and cancer research to higher education.

“Some people do that, and they give a little bit, but he was all in for all of them,” Marx said.

Dolan had deep ties to the Twin Cities, also working alongside social justice activist Nekima Levy Armstrong.

“He didn’t strike me as the typical corporate executive in the sense that he wasn’t insulated from a lot of the issues that our most vulnerable communities face, but he spent his time rolling up his sleeves and using his power, his privilege, and his position to make a difference,” Levy Armstrong said.

The Hennepin County Medical Examiner will officially identify the person who died in the crash.

The NTSB said it will release a preliminary report in the next two weeks.
