ABC15 pilot Craig Smith was remembered at services in Scottsdale on Thursday morning. 

Smith was killed when two news helicopters covering a police chase collided and crashed to the ground in Phoenix on Friday.

Also killed in the crash were ABC15 Photojournalist Rick Krolak and 3TV's Pilot Scott Bowerbank and Photojournalist Jim Cox.

Craig's well-known dog attended her master's funeral.

Molly is a West Highland white terrier who's known to Phoenix TV viewers because she often flew with Craig.

 
She would sit calmly in Smith's lap during his reports, wearing custom-made headphones.

Molly was waiting in an airport hangar Friday when the crash happened.

Smith's father says the dog has been "moping around, not eating, acting depressed." He says she knows something is wrong.

Molly will now live with Smith's parents in Michigan.

A service for ABC15 Photojournalist Rick Krolak is scheduled Saturday.

Memorials for the 3TV journalists were held Tuesday.
