Almost 30 years ago, Dad and I were leaning on the fence outside the flight school in Sudbury watching helicopters come and go. He said to me, "Are you sure you want to do this?" "Yes!", I said. My parents and numerous Aunts and Uncles have all supported me and helped me achieve a career that has taken me all over the country and allowed me to experience places some can only imagine. Granted, I've spent an unusual amount of time in the more bug infested remote parts of Canada, but I have a job that I love and I never get tired of flying.
Dad never told me what to do, he always allowed me to make my own decisions and gave me his unending support and for this I am forever grateful.

I cannot take all the credit as it would not have been possible without the help of my faithful partner over the years who was taken from us at such an early age .Linda kept us fed and watered, did the shopping ,managed the budget,and ran taxi.Enjoyed the visit to Yellowknife and Whitehorse which i would never have done otherwise. It has been an incredible journey for one who has trouble with a 6 foot ladder. Much appreciated and so proud of our boys and their spouses.
ReplyDeleteSo true! Linda did much of the "ground" work, and you carried on! Great job!
