AURORA | The family of a toddler who police say was killed last week by his mother’s boyfriend shared a pretty remarkable story Monday about a sympathetic airline crew.
According to the story, first posted on the blog www.elliott.org, run by consumer advocate Christopher Elliott, Caden Rodgers’ grandfather was rushing from California to Denver to be with his family after the toddler was hospitalized.
When he landed at an Arizona airport, where he switched planes for the flight to Denver, he was running a few minutes late. The Southwest Airlines pilot, knowing what the family was going through, held the plane for him for 12 minutes.
Here is a link to the full story on Elliott’s blog.
Nancy Dickinson, the woman who shared the story, confirmed to me this morning that Caden Rodgers is her grandson. I will have more on this story this afternoon.
