This morning I saw breaking news on CNN of an airplane crash in a lake in Winter Haven and thought about my cousin Susan Sugar and her husband John, both pilots. But, I say to myself, there are a bunch of planes and pilots in Winter Haven, what are the chances its my cousins.
The phone rings, its my mother. My cousin John Sugar and his father were in the plane, not sure which was piloting the plane that crashed in the lake in their back yard. John is alive with facial injuries and still evaluating and his father was air lifted to Tampa.
Prayers to the Sugar family, such wonderful people. They are in Sowal about 4 times a year and always a big part of our huge Thanksgiving festivities here every year.
My mother has been offered to fly with them in this exact plane. Apparantly it is one that is taken apart to be stored. My mother was never comfortable flying in it, so she hasn't. She flies in their other planes though.
