The Story of Their Lives With a Twist

What's your dream?


Esther Esther: The View of a Lifetime
Her next wish was to go to Spain, so she took her granddaughter there to show her where her grandfather had come from.

Her third wish?  She wanted to go on a helicopter ride. And on June 20th, 2007, she got to do just that. The skies were crystal clear and perfect for a flight through the Columbia Gorge and around Crown Point.  The pilot even rolled the helicopter to the side a bit for Esther to get a better vantage of things below. Once they'd been up in the air for a while, he asked her if she'd like to take the helm.  "Oh no," she replied, "You're doing just fine."     

Esther wasn't afraid for a moment on the flight, and she still lights up when she talks about her helicopter ride that sunny day in June.  She'll always remember those stunning views and the beautiful day she spent with her head in the clouds.
