Our friend sent us an e-mail. I thought I'd share a couple of things with you.

I would just like to pass on some words, that Dave had told me, for I know that he would had liked for all to hear. One of my many conversations that Dave and I have had over the last few months was about if something should happen to he him during this mission As he turned towards me and looked right into my eyes, he said "that I want you to find the person that caused the accident, go to them and tell them that I hold no animosity for the decision that resulted in the lost of the vehicle. But also tell them that I died doing what I loved to do..... and I hold no regrets.

We all know that Dave was at the pinnacle of his life.....He had fulfilled his dream.

For the people that did not get Dave's last e-mail, I would like to share part of that as well....

I will make one more observation - if I'd been born in space I know I would
desire to visit the beautiful Earth more than I've ever yearned to visit to
space. It is a wonderful planet.
