We now stand at the threshold of the closing stages of yet another era. One does not have to go very far down memory lane to evoke a few fond ones, in fact more than a few.
This is a rather surprising turn of events, especially when you consider the sighs of relief echoing throughout at the end of such others. Don’t get me wrong, there were quite a few highs in those times as well. But arguably, the lows weighed out and in the end over shadowed them, making it understandably difficult for one to be optimistic. One can’t help but wonder how he managed a feat, where many before him had failed.
Is it because he put the organization on the map? Or he delivered deserved recognition? Or he enabled the freedom for independence at work and at home? Or helped us discover ourselves?
From what I can see, it’s all of the above and much more, and one would do well to prove me otherwise.
Come what may, one thing is crystal clear. The ‘bar’ has certainly been raised by a notch or two, for his successors to match.

Well said comrade! I may be unforgiving, overcritical and un-appreciating, but with the class and the elegance of the man, like you said specially compared with many of those who came before him, I must bow my head in true appreciation… wish the man every bit he deserves..
