Watch this deeply moving Today Show segment with Katie Couric as she meets an Angel Flight pilot and passengers—a teenaged boy afflicted with an inoperable brain tumor and his tender-hearted father.

NBC’s Today selected Angel Flight for a special “Who We Admire” series. Volunteer pilot Richard Love transported 14-year-old Mitchell and his father, Jack, to Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center as their last best hope for treatment. Couric met them on the tarmac at the Teterboro airport near New York City for the interview. Sadly, Mitchell passed away a few weeks later.
