🕊️ About Us

Let me introduce myself, my name is Ann Baker, mother of Faith Baker Rowe. On behalf of this non-profit corporation “Fly with Faith Inc” 5K run and walk, allow me to share our story:

💔 Tragic Incident

• Event Date: March 7th, 2023
• Accident: Mid-airplane collision above Lake Hartridge
• Lives Lost: Four, including my daughter Faith (23) and her student Zach Mace (19)
• Memory: Faith was a gifted individual with a passion for aviation and music.

🌟 Faith's Legacy

Faith was a gift from our good Lord. Sent to us after a 15-year long wait on trying to have a child of our own. She arrived May 8th, 1999. The Best Mother’s Day gift ever! We were so excited to adopt her. She was very smart, gifted musically, singing for numerous church organizations, and playing many instruments from the time she was 6 years old, especially piano and drums. She was an adventurous individual who loved to play basketball, skateboard, ride rollercoasters, go to concerts, and fly. She received her education at various institutions and earned a bachelor’s degree in aviation science, pursuing a goal to work for a major airline. She was a member at Peoples Church and sang on the praise & worship team.

🎓 Purpose of the Race

Our purpose is to have Faith, and her student Zach Mace’s voice heard! Hoping a radio tower will be at the airport soon. That in their death they will be able, with your help, to promote safer skies by improving education in aviation safety and to bless students with scholarships to give them the opportunity to become pilots. The hope is that we will achieve safer skies by enhancing education and pursuing positive changes in the aviation industry.
