Did I ever tell you he made parts of the Friendship 7? He did. He machined them by hand. You wouldn't believe the amazing tools he had. He gave them to my brother-in-law, who probably loves them as much as I do, plus having uses for them. My dad never graduated from high school. Had to quit to go to work to support his mom and brother and sister. But when he decided he wanted to be a tool and die maker, he had to go take a bunch of advanced math classes, trig and stuff like that. He aced all his tests, and ended up getting John Glenn into orbit.
He rocks.
