The Long and Winding Road continues to be filled with many challenges resulting in sleepless nights and many tears. However, I’m delighted to announce Dr. Joseph Rankin’s 5 children are currently on-board Delta Airlines departing Nigeria and bound for Portland, Oregon. The first leg of their flight will land in Atlanta, Georgia, early tomorrow morning, and their final arrival at PDX is slated for tomorrow, Thursday, at 10:30 a.m. A new future is possible due to the gracious support of so many good people from our city and around the world. As Dr. Rankin would say: “my heart is red”; this Nigerian metaphor means deep and sincere happiness along with gratitude. Thank you all.6416288521617656874.jpeg6131468034632952635.jpeg
