A family in Fairfax, Va., is trying to cope with the loss of not one, but two loved ones.

Their two daughters, 25-year-old Victoria Stefan and her 22-year-old sister Elizabeth, were spending the holidays together when they were killed in a car crash early Monday morning. 

Investigators say both women were killed on impact when their car slammed into a jersey wall at Route 29 and West Ox Road.

It was reported that the driver, Victoria, lost control of a Jaguar sedan while entering a ramp from West Ox Road to Lee Highway and investigators think that they may have taken the turn too fast. They both had their seat belts on.

The parents, Bill and Eva Stefan, are now trying to cope with this devastating loss of two of their three daughters.

"(Life) has been so rewarding lately, and now it's all been taken away," Eva Stefan said. "But we'll meet someday again."

Victoria, a James Madison University graduate, was about to start a new job with the state government.  Elizabeth traveled the world as a model.  She inherited her good looks from her mother, who is a former Miss Sweden.

The parents are now receiving support from family and friends from many parts of the world.
