  Meeting Colleen

  Gordon--enjoyed reading this story. Could I possible have an 8 1/2 x 11 colored copy of our picture--it would be proudly displayed in my home. Thank you for your many, many contributions to enhancing and enriching our very own homegrown and oh so special SWA Culture. Love you. Colleen

The first time I met Colleen was at our Maintenance hangar somewhere around late October or early November of 2003. She and Herb had come to our facility to accept a gift on behalf of the Mechanics.

  Jeff--funny the things people remember (enjoyed this story). What I remember about our first meeting was thinking "Jeff could hold about five or six different Leadership positions (including mine) at SWA and perform beautifully in any one of them." Today, I feel the same way, except that I would revise my thought to "ten or 12" different Leadership positions.
