You know I was just thinking about the movie, The Right Stuff, just in the last 24 hours. 2016 certainly is proving to be the Year of the Reaper.

Here's to you John. You were a giant amongst men.

Cheers,
Jim

I still remember his historic space flight back in Feb,1962. He went on to become a US Senator, and a true American Icon.

Thanks for all you've done for our country. You'll be surely missed. RIP Sir.

Joel
