timelord81r Posted August 26, 2012 Share Posted August 26, 2012 shocked and saddened to hear the news last night :-( RIP "When you leave this life, you can probably agree you can't take anything with you. But you can certainly leave something behind. Life's noblest goal is to leave this world better than you found it." -- Neil Armstrong speaking to Virginia Tech's class of 1986. - http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-19381098 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoldenGreen Posted August 28, 2012 Share Posted August 28, 2012 Very sad news, but at 82 what a fantastic life to have lived. Neil excelled in a great life in his test flying , space missions and teaching and despite all the attention he did deserve he managed to live a relatively quiet family life away from the media. The name Neil Armstrong will forever be etched in the History of the World as the first man to set foot on the moon. R.I.P. Neil - A True Legend.
