After a quick chat with then-program director Stewart Meyers and a handshake, we were on our way to help change peoples' lives. Tragedy can strike any one of us at anytime and we are left helpless, lonely and desperate with no resources and nowhere to turn. No money to pay bills, a mortgage or raise his young beautiful daughter who misses her big brother. We called his mom, Rosalind, and got the cost of the pump — $6,300 — and put our team of Secret Wish volunteers on notice. I am proud to see what radio and its listeners can do and one of the proudest Calgarians you will every meet.
