He was immortalized and idolized long before that. I heard a lot of him before that movie, and I wasn’t alive when he made the record.

Wow! I just checked on him this morning to see if he was still with us. Made me glad to see that he was. And now he’s not. RIP to a great American.

He was overlooked for the astronaut program because he didn’t have college degree. And he was bitter about it for years.

He just never changed and that was good.
He had a great run.
A darned amazing man.
