POCATELLO, Idaho (KIFI) - It was an early birthday celebration for Naomi Wilde, who will celebrate 106 years of life on Sunday.
On Friday, Portneuf Medical Center, Portneuf Air Rescue and Grace Assisted Living granted her wish of riding in a helicopter.
The helicopter took Naomi and her daughter Brittany around the City of Pocatello, and even made an appearance at Naomi’s current home, Grace Assisted Living.
While Naomi doesn’t have the best vision, she was able to experience the sounds and feeling of flying through the air.
"It was just awesome, a pretty cool feeling," Naomi said.
