An American hero, that lived a very long, but great life and left a legacy. I love the words he lived by and shared back in 1997, which they share at the end of this article. “If there is one thing I’ve learned in my years on this planet, it’s that the happiest and most fulfilled people I’ve known are those who devoted themselves to something bigger and more profound than merely their own self-interest.” Justin Taylor
