Printed
Tom Hanks is saying farewell to late Apollo 13 astronaut James Lovell … who Tom famously performed on the large display.
In 1995’s “Apollo 13” Tom performs Lovell, who died Thursday at 97.
Tom is remembering Lovell in a heartfelt submit on social media, saying … “There are people who dare, who dream, and who lead others to the places we would not go on our own. Jim Lovell, who for a long while had gone farther into space and for longer than any other person of our planet, was that kind of guy.”
Hanks provides … “His many voyages around Earth and on to so-very-close to the moon were not made for riches or celebrity, but because such challenges as those are what fuels the course of being alive — and who better than Jim Lovell to make those voyages.”
Tom wraps up his tribute, saying … “On this night of a full moon, he passes on — to the heavens, to the cosmos, to the stars. God speed you, on this next voyage, Jim Lovell.”
