    I think everyone in the US immediately thought of the twin towers.... As I did. However, the man did beautiful and graceful work. And the best part I think is in watching this short video, he has the best smile. I know that sounds corny. And I don't mean for it to sound trite. But he seems to have a certain inner joy that bubbled up within him. You can't ask for much more than that in person. So I am sure that he is resting in peace now and probably working with his almighty as they are plan something pretty cool for the future..But he definitely had quiet joy. May his contributions to our world continue to bring forth his joy for all of us here and his family as they mourn the loss of a fine and decent man. Gail in Central Florida 7/21/2019
