U.S. military pilot Gail S. Halvorsen — known as the “Candy Bomber” for his candy airdrops during the Berlin airlift after World War II ended — has died at 101.
Halvorsen died Wednesday at his home in Utah after a brief illness, said James Stewart, the director of the Gail S. Halvorsen Aviation Education Foundation.
Halvorsen was beloved and venerated in Berlin, which he last visited in 2019 when the city celebrated the 70th anniversary of the day the Soviets lifted their post-War World II blockade cutting off supplies to West Berlin with a big party at the former Tempelhof airport in the German capital.
Tuesday Story
The other day, a beautiful, talented young woman who went by the name of Nightbirde and had a voice like an Angel, died after battling cancer. She was 31 years old.
When Nightbirde appeared on America’s Got Talent, she sang an original song called ” It’s Ok” and touched millions of hearts.” We’re all a little lost and it’s all right…
it’s all right… to be lost sometimes.” 🎶🎶I remember watching her with tears streaming down my face thinking, “Even with a very slim chance of survival, this courageous woman is standing on a stage singing and lifting up an entire audience. What an incredible human being!”
Howie Mandel honored Nightbirde with these words…
” Nightbirde was a bright inspirational light in our lives. We must continue to live and learn from her words and lyrics.”I think about what I’ve learned from Nightbirde in the short time she touched my life
It’s alright to feel lost sometimes…“Vi lang vi mir kenen gefinen aundzer veg heym.”
As long as we can find our way home.
“You can’t wait until life isn’t hard anymore before you decide to be happy.”~ Nightbirde
RIP Taylor Hawkins.
