Like the event in “86” when in school, while watching the shuttle launch in our school library and the tragedy that followed, I still remember thinking to myself, “Did this really just happen?”

Interesting what sticks with us at times like this. Sharp memories on day, time, sights and smells. Honed to the smallest of details.

Another hero
