"As I mourn his death, I am unspeakably proud that a man of such courage would see fit to keep company with us. He died a national hero. If I can do as much with my life as he did with his death, I will have succeeded beyond my wildest dreams. " It simply cannot be stated any better that this. Thank you, Physicist. Thank you, AppyPappy for honoring your friend at such a sad time. Thanks, most of all, to BCM for blessing our world with his act of unselfish bravery.
From the heart, my friend.
