I was honored and had the privileged to participate in the September 17 Honor Flight.
To just say thank you is not adequate. The execution from the very beginning was flawless. From the moment we arrived at the airport until we returned that evening we all were treated with the greatest respect. The letters from family, friends and young school children were so heartwarming. The staff and all the volunteers deserve a huge thank you.
I would be remiss if I didn't mention the wonderful people who came out to welcome us home. I wish I could thank each and everyone!
Thank you again for one of the greatest experiences of my life.
