From Ernie LaFave of Escanaba:

To the Honor Flight Committee and the local community.

I was thrilled to be part of the Honor Flight on September 28. The committee and the community made this day awesome and a huge thank you to all that make it possible as well as supported this flight. Seeing the 300-400 people who met our flight, despite the 40 degree weather, and stayed late to welcome us, was so appreciated and touching. I will never forget this great day and all the acts of kindness.

Many thanks to all.
