We Have Lift Off






Good morning. At approximately 7:45 this morning Gord and Sheila departed Maui for Calgary. All has remained the same with Gord's condition, thereby allowing for his departure. This will be an all day journey for them as the Lear 35 that they are flying on requires a fuel stop in Hillsboro, Oregon. They are on the flight with two pilots and two medics so they are in good hands. They are expected to arrive back in Calgary some time around 7pm local time. Gord and Sheila were surrounded by family as they arrived at the airstrip to depart this morning. Although we could not join them on the journey, they have been assured that everyones' hearts, thoughts and prayers will travel every mile with them.
