FINAL GLIDE SYMPATHY CARD FOR GLIDER PILOTS

Featuring the incredible poem by John Gillespir McGee Jr. that begins ...

Oh! I have slipped the surly bonds of earth

And danced the skies on laughter-silvered wings .... and ends

Put out my hand, and touched the face of God.

Which as a glider pilot in my youth I find very appropriate, and not at all 'soppy'.

This card was designed to say goodbye to one of my old gliding instructors ... which explains why the insert reads : May God Bless his Final Glide - In Deepest Sympathy... final glide being the name given to the approach just before landing and what has been engraved on my father's headstone. Any glider pilot's widow will be so touched by this card, but I realise that there aren't many of you who are going to need it.

Thanks for looking and BLESSINGS be upon you.
