On September 11, 2001, Shirley Brooks-Jones was a passenger on Delta Flight 15 traveling from Frankfurt, Germany to Atlanta, Georgia. A few hours into that flight they were rerouted to Gander, Newfoundland due to the 9/11 terrorist attacks. Shirley is one of nearly 8,000 passengers who found themselves essentially stranded in this small town of 10,000 people for three days. It proved to be one of the most emotional and enduring experience of their lives and lead to a lasting relationship. Come hear about her emotional story and how she and you can help others.
