A Proud and Thankful Day...

...in the wake of yesterday's Airbus crash into the Hudson River. How proud AND thankful I am that ALL the lives were spared! I can't imagine the feeling those passengers must have had when told by the pilot to "brace for impact". Fathers, mothers, sons, daughters, children, young adults.....all with their own very special stories of family and loved ones.....the loss of each one would have been so tragic.
What mastery the Pilots and crew exhibited! Further, all the available first responders.....I heard some of them interviewed and they said they performed as if they had rehearsed for this event!
A proud and thankful day, indeed. KUDOS to all involved...I will always remember this with a heart filled with gratitude!
