Thanks, Vern, that means a lot! Emma and I first came to know Jonathan when he was really helpful to us at NARAM 50. Incredibly gracious behavior from someone we knew not at all. Years later I was able to return a bit of the favor as we sat for hours talking about our shared passion for collecting model rocketry items. He spoke often about how much he loved all things "Vern" and "Gleda," LOL. The two of you brought so much joy to him. Thanks, Vern.
