Thanks to everyone who came to the funeral. We had about 16 pilots. Two were TSA, one was Pinnacle, and the rest were XJET. All of us worked with Tony and most of us went to Parks College with him. Before the funeral we were standing outside together chatting and the widow's father came up to us, put his arms around us and told us he had no idea that pilots were such a unified group of brothers and sisters and that us being there meant more than we knew to Jen and the family. I'm proud of us, and happy that we were able to bring some comfort to the family in this tragic time. To those who couldn't make it, thanks for your contributions and prayers. Thanks again. I'm proud of all of us.
