I have to admit this whole thing has me close to crying. These people aren't just American heroes,Israeli heros,etc,etc,etc,but are heroes for all mankind,as they worked and risked their lives to expand the knowledge and reach of all of mankind. They represented what was best of us all,and were role models children everywhere could look up to. They represented courage,hard work,study,intelligence,and a bold vision too many are lacking. We are all less for their passing.
