Figure skater Maxim Naumov, who lost his parents in January’s DC plane crash, was overcome with emotion after performing a routine in their honor

At the end of his figure skating performance, when the last note of his parents’ favorite song played in an arena packed with spectators and heavy with sorrow, Maxim Naumov dropped to his knees at the center of the ice. He remained there for what seemed like forever, awash in a spotlight, looking lost and sobbing.
