Neil Armstrong Passes Away


Neil Armstrong, known as the first person in the world to set foot on the moon, died earlier today. According to his family, he died of "complications resulting from cardiovascular procedures", at the age of 82. On July 20, 1969; Armstrong made history by becoming the first man on the moon, some may remember that small phrase he said while stepping foot on the moon, "That's one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind". Armstrong landed on the moon at age 38 after a 250,000 mile, four day trip in the Apollo 11 shuttle. His family and friends are in my prayers and may he rest in peace.
