Bearskin Lake

Sonny and his family spent 4 years at Bearskin Lake in the mid to late 80's (I think). Anyway. a lady died and they felt they should go to the funeral. So they left Sunday morning at 7 and arrived at Sioux Lookout around noon on Monday. They were surprised to find a charter flight to take them out to Bearskin Lake. This flight was paid for by the natives at Bearskin Lake. They had Sonny & Ruth were coming and this was how they responded. My first thought was this: The native people have a lot of respect for Sonny. Why else would they do this. Their flight back to Sioux was paid for as well. Amazing. I am pleased they could go and I am pleased he is my pastor...
