Another sad reminder that time waits for no man. Rem's era and generation -- the appropriately-named "Greatest Generation" -- are quietly slipping away. My personal frame of reference is from about 1963 to the early 1970's, which I maintain were the best years of motorsport ever and, of course, were the Cobra/GT 40/Ford/Eagle/etc. days of glory. They still seem like yesterday, but are now about as far in the past as was the horse & buggy era then.

Never met the man, but from what I've read about him, he seems to embody a lot of what his country represented during his life. RIP
