On one fine day, Pilot Andy Collett happened to look downwards while he was in a hot air balloon. He saw a shape of a heart in a field; it was Winston’s tribute to his wife.
He and Janet would, at times, would love to go for a walk in a meadow near their house. Winston and his son decided to make a shape of a heart in that meadow. The heart could be seen only from the air and though, they never themselves saw that heart, it still meant a lot to them.
The pilot who saw the heart said that he is a regular flyer and this was the most amazing sight that he has seen since he started flying. “It was subtly hidden from the view, a regular person would never even know it is there,” added the Pilot.
Winston made it in such a way so that his wife could see it from the sky and he hoped that she would be happy with it.
