Ms. Woltman, thank you for your contribution to science, in your participation in the Mercury program. I'm sorry you were not selected at the time, but you now have your eternal reward - and you can probably see all of the planets from where you are, anytime you want to. Our condolences to your family and friends. May you rest in peace.

Rhea was a parliamentarian. When I was President of the Downtown Rotary club, she came up to me after the meeting and said "It's God before country young man!" Seems I had started the meeting with the pledge and then the prayer. I will never forget.
