Good Friday (12.9.16) morning. On Thursday, 12.8.16, John Herschel Glenn, 95,
died at the James Cancer Hospital in Columbus, OH. “Rest in Peace, John Glenn”.
My condolences to his family.
You can read a lot of his story here:
Family life of
John Glenn.
He married his childhood
sweetheart, Anna Margaret Castor, in 1943, and were married 70 years. They had two children: Carolyn and John David.
He was a
Marine, Astronaut, and a U.S. Senator.
Some of his
accomplishments:
First American
to orbit the earth (2.20.62, took 4 hours and 55 minutes). Famous phrase: “Zero G, and I feel fine.”
Set the transcontinental
speed record as a test pilot.
Oldest person
in space (second flight: shuttle
Discover, 1988).
Longest running
Senator in Ohio’s history. On his third attempt
in 1974, he won. When he announced his upcoming retirement in 1997, he said, “There
is still no cure for the common birthday.”
Last survivor
of the original Mercury 7 astronauts.
Rest in peace,
John Glenn. I’m sure you left a
multitude of memories for your family to remember!

Glenn; heart gift tag, 2 heart papers, seven fractal card fronts, and a

I love the two “retired cards”. One is a polite version; the other is a “telling
it all” version.
Okay! That’s it for today’s graphics.
Use them with some pre-made cards and envelopes, and your cards will just
take a minute to get together.
