"Has anybody here seen my old friend Martin,
Can you tell me where he's gone?
He freed a lot of people
But you know the good they die young.
I just turned around, and he was gone."
I try not to have heroes. I look to myself for freedom and strength. I feel we all should. But if were to have a hero. It would be this man.

As good a man as ever there was or shall be to have as a hero.
We were lucky to have him. I wish that he could have stayed longer. We'd have been the better for it.
I wish people could always see the good in our mentors and embrace it. As opposed to seeing them as a threat and eliminating them.
this man did great things. Great Things. he is missed every day.
