The world has lost a unique and fascinating individual. What a life he lived.

3 days past his 88th birthday
I think there is one heck of a reunion going on in the Big Lot in the Sky. John, Gunther, Axle, Ben, Barbara, Anna May and all the rest have gotten together for a huge Jackpot. All of the elephants are trumpeting and dancing, so excited that the Captain has re-joined them. We will miss him, but we know he is much better now and is amongst friends.
I never met him, but his words over the years became a guide through so many of my thoughts. Such a remarkable man.
I haven't visited this blog in a while, but Buckles was always an inspiration to a "JCL" like me. Buckles knew a very special guy, "Steve fanning" , whom I worked with in 1975 on James E. Strates Shows. Buckles even posted a photo of Steve in his younger days, when Steve was a flyer. Steve was a special guy just like Buckles. In reply to Larry Louree's post above, I'm sure that Steve is in the "Great Lot in the Sky" with Buckles, as well.
