Neil Armstrong, a hero of the 20th century, a living legend, the first man to walk on the moon has passed on.
And it is rare a quote from the Hávamál is as fitting as it is here:
Cattle die, kinsmen die
you yourself die;
I know one thing which never dies:
the fate of the honored dead.
Mr Armstrong, your life and your deeds will be remembered for a very long time to come, as long as your memory lives, you live on, too. Your star has not yet burned out, you are still an inspiration!
Ad Astra, Neil Armstrong!
Neil Alden Armstrong: 5. August 1930 – † 25. August 2012
