I am still in disbelief. When I went to work Monday and then went about town during the day, I heard Steve's name mentioned so many, many times - it was just unbelievable. Each person telling the story they'd heard on the news as if they knew this great man personally. That's part of why he was so well known - his fantastic personality and vast knowledge just touched the homes of soooooo many people around the globe. A truly phenomenal human being. I too, feel as though I've lost a good friend. He always included the whole family in his shows and that made us feel a 'part' of it all. I will probably never come into contact with a croc or poisonous snake, but if I ever do, I have a much better idea of what to do and what not to do, because of Steve and his family. One of my 13 year-olds dreams for later in life has always been to visit Australia and Australia Zoo in hopes of meeting the "Croc-hunter'. I can't imagine that he would have ever been interested in visiting another country if not for Steve Irwin. I truly hope Terry, Steve's folks and his children will continue to educate the public about all the wonderful creatures of Australia. Steve will live on in our hearts and in our minds for a very long time.
Thanks for letting me share.
