Amanda Halse was killed, along with her boyfriend, Patrick Cushing, 31, according to her sister Karina Halse.
Karina said Amanda was an artist. She called her "the most beautiful soul" and that Amanda "lived her life to the fullest every single day."
Karina Halse told ABC News her sister texted her soon before the crash to say she was taking a limo somewhere. Karina said Amanda and Patrick had earlier that summer attended the wedding of two other victims - Shane and Erin.
Karina said her sister was a plant lover who worked as a waitress at Shaker Point in Watervliet. The limo was headed to a brewery in Cooperstown, N.Y., Karina, who visited the crash site Monday, said. The last time Karina saw her sister alive was the prior weekend when they and their mother traveled to a plant store in Vermont, she said.
"My heart is sunken. It's in a place where I've never felt this type of pain before," said Karina.
Karina said Amanda and Patrick were like "two peas in a pod" and had been dating about a year.
