An American icon gone. Amazing life he had.
Not quite the week for the Armstrongs!
RIP Neil.

I was glued to my folks black and white TV as a 9 year old. Probably the coolest thing I've ever seen on the tube.

RIP Mr. Armstrong. I remember watching the first walk on the moon from the living room with my parents.

Amazing that even 43 years later nothing has even come close to this accomplishment. IMHO this was the high water mark of this country.

So many people from this era are passing. I love talking to them. They are gems of history and wisdom.
