My friend, Judy Gilbert, the hockey legends wife & Humanitarian is Buzz Aldrin friend…she wrote on Facebook

Buzz Aldrin. Made it

To the moon…and back. He told me it took so much more than education, discipline and physical strength. It took years of determination and believing that any goal is possible “but it was still hard to believe when l took my first step onto the moon’s surface.”
