cphollis Posted December 8, 2016 Share Posted December 8, 2016 I was born in 1959. John Glenn was one of my first childhood heroes (right there next to Superman). This was a man who clearly knew how to live his life. Godspeed indeed. Want to make your band better? Check out "A Guide To Starting (Or Improving!)

Mark Schmieder Posted December 8, 2016 Share Posted December 8, 2016 My family played a key role in the NASA moon missions. I never met John Glenn, but he was always a personal hero of mine, and was one of many reasons why I wanted to be an astronaut, until I lost my 20/20 vision. I especially admired the risk he took late in life to go up in space so we can learn how it affects an aging body.

Doerfler Posted December 8, 2016 Share Posted December 8, 2016 I especially admired the risk he took late in life to go up in space so we can learn how it affects an aging body. We will most likely never see again someone who was so diverse and excelled at everything he did. Engineer, astronaut, then US Senator. RIP sir.

allan_evett Posted December 8, 2016 Share Posted December 8, 2016 I was born in 1958, and lived through much of what John Glenn detailed in his 2000 autobiography. Quite a life he had. Certainly someone I've always admired. RIP, John Glenn ! 'Someday, we'll look back on these days and laugh; likely a maniacal laugh from our padded cells, but a laugh nonetheless' - Mr. Boffo.

Al Quinn Posted December 9, 2016 Share Posted December 9, 2016 I was also born in 1958. My grandfather worked on the space program and actually met John Glenn. He loved to tell the story. Meeting this great man was one of the highlights of his life! RIP John Glenn https://alquinn.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ksoper Posted December 9, 2016 Share Posted December 9, 2016 Another hero gone. He was one of our best. I played an artist gig on the USS Intrepid for Glenn and the Joint Chiefs. The artist sat next to Mrs. Glenn and engaged her in conversation. He found out that she was a church organist. He said to her, "Would you believe our piano player was a church organist?" "No," she said. Yeah, well. Alan Sheppard may have been first, but I'll always associate John Glenn with being the face and heart of the space program.

humannoyed Posted December 9, 2016 Share Posted December 9, 2016 Thank you JG! If you have never read The Right Stuff, I highly recommend it.The book is much better than the movie.

Lindaru Posted December 12, 2016 Share Posted December 12, 2016 I was born in 1956. When I heard about his passing, I felt like a large piece of my childhood just disappeared. RIP, John Glenn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
