The Northshore Interfaith Council’s annual Thanksgiving service will feature remarks on gratitude by Woodinville physician Dr. Steven Bramwell, who survived a private plane crash in the Cascades.
The gathering is at 7 p.m. Nov. 21 at the Blessed Teresa of Calcutta Catholic Church, 13632 N.E. 177th Place, Woodinville.
Bramwell is an orthopedic surgeon, private pilot and former receiver for the University of Washington Huskies football team.
In 1990, Bramwell and his family survived a plane crash on the side of a mountain in the Cascade Mountain Range, near Mt. Rainier.
Bramwell will speak how his experience helped him to focus on the most important things in life, such as family, others and his relationship with God, instead of material things.
