fundraising efforts! Fundraising continues for this
endowed scholarship - Flight 15 Scholarship Fund
which is housed at The Columbus Foundation. (All
photos from my 2002 trip.)

This was an awesome trip. Jo, Dan and Silvia West and I got to
see icebergs and moose, among many other wonderful things!
Best of all was being able to spend time with our great "Newfie"
friends. |

On
September 11, 2002 and 2003, I was back with those incredible people
of Lewisporte to participate in activities in memory of
all those who suffered so and gave so much on 9/11/01 and
in its aftermath. |

(from September 11, 2002) |

In December 2001 I had the honor
to present to the Lewisporte Fire Department a very special American Flag,
which had been flown over the U.S.
Capitol at the request of Congresswoman
Deborah Pryce of Ohio along with a very touching letter from
her. |

valiant firemen across the United States. |
