Bessie Coleman

Bessie Coleman is today's Google doodle image. Pretty cool to see an aviator recognized. Today is her birthday. Happy b-day Bessie!

Never heard of her. Now I know. Happy Birthday Queen Bess.

I've never paid attention to the Google logo until today. Pretty cool tribute!

I thought I remembered the USPS had a Bessie stamp, so I looked it up to be sure.

That was a nice tribute Google gave to the queen.

Queen Bess is truly one of the greatest inspirations of my life! The love and admiration I have for her is beyond words. I sure wish that I could have met her.
Found this beautiful picture last year and my wife gave it to me as a birthday gift. Here, she's operating a radio at the Woodard Studio in Chicago.
God bless her soul
