This blog mourns the passing of Chris Reeve. He truly made us believe a man could fly, in terms of spirit if not in body.

I keep thinking of that commercial where, through computer imagery, he was shown getting up out of his chair. I always thought how magnificent that would be if he was actually able to accomplish it. Instead a runner who couldn’t walk has fallen. Let’s hope that others pick up the baton.

Kathleen has a number of personal recollections of him, having actually met Reeve early in his career. She’ll be posting them up later on her blog.
