Not sure what to say?

John never received the recognition he deserved for the contributions he made to the Apollo Moon Shot! Von bran and the astronauts got much deserved credit for what they did but it did not masher up to "John Houbolt" contribution! I would like to see a book or a movie about this story of the space race! Thank You John!! Rest in Peace.

Neal, Prayers for you and your family. Comfort for your Mom. Articles in Daily Press honored your Dad. Will show to my niece, Eliza, age 14 and nephew, Ryan, 16.
Your father was truly a NASA pioneer.
Blessings to all. Patti Dixon, Hampton

I met Dr. Houbolt as the father of his lovely and brilliant daughter Neil and only later came to fully understand and appreciate the enormous contributions that he made to our quest to reach to moon. My most sincere condolences on his passing.
