      His adventures expanded and helped us to all evolve at a greater pace than your orginary, fellow man. He did so much for so many in helping our imaginations to further develop. What a blessed life. God bless his family, friends and coworkers.

      When I found out that he was being buried at sea, it made me think about the fact that we know more about the surface of the moon than the bottom of our own oceans. This man was able to help us learn about our own moon, and now he gets to discover the depths of the sea.

      It’s nice to see photos of a military funeral honoring a man, who while certainly taken to soon, had a chance to live a very full life.
