Read MoreWD, I remember going to the Smithsonian Air and Space and you introducing rocket propellants to me. And your visit to China Lake when my husband was the base commander. I didn´t see you after that but thought of you often. Hopefully the pulled pork in Heaven is as good as GIBSON´s. Your literally old friend Robin Blessings to your family and to you.

"Do not stand at my grave and weep I am not there. I do not sleep. I am a thousand winds that blow. I am the diamond glints on snow. I am the sunlight on ripened grain. I am the gentle autumn rain. When you awaken in the morning's hush I am the swift uplifting rush Of quiet birds in circled flight. I am the soft stars that shine at night. Do not stand at my grave and cry; I am not there. I did not die." By Mary Elizabeth Frye Remembering you today and always.
