propacker 0 #1 October 15, 2002 I sat next to a Shannon from Tennessee in the right otter during the POPS jumps last week. She brought life saver candy for us during the ride up to altitude. She made herself sit rather uncomfortably because two guys down the bench seemed to be taking up too much room - and she didn't complain. She let me put my arm over her shoulder and then put her arm up on the guy next to her, so that I could rest my hand on her arm. She always gave the oxygen guy a good gear check after he laid on the floor to turn on our oxygen. She never once complained about anything while on the ride up. What's the chance that there were two Shannon's from Tenn?? What a sweet lady. I hate to say it, but I don't normally get too choked up when a jumper goes in..........this time I cried. bob hunter skydive houston Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ChileRelleno 0 #2 October 15, 2002 Bob, alot of people are crying with you... When I hear of a jumper going in whether I knew them or not it hurts, a kindred spirit is lost... We all know the risk, and these wonderful ladies are trying to help others have a better life... She paid the ultimate price while doing this... MAY HER SPIRIT SOAR FOREVER!!!!

billvon 3,120 #3 October 15, 2002 Molly is going through a hard time now, too. She was floating next to Shannon, and docking on her in the formation. After her brush with death last year, and her first time on a 100+ way, she has a lot to deal with now. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
