I am grateful he lived so long! My 17 year old son, aspiring to join the US Marines after high school graduation, is able to appreciate him. And my son was too young to appreciate when Glenn went BACK into space at 77 years old, but I remember like it was not too long ago. Funny thing is, I was just thinking about Glenn for some reason a few months ago, remembering when he went into space in the late 90's, and thinking that he "must be quite old now..." He was quite old and lived a VERY productive life until the end!
