My crew mates approached me when we were at Kennedy in uh in quarantine and they said, "Hey, we the three of them had 
talked and they would like to do this and that was an emotional moment for me." And I I I just thought that was 
that was just a total treasure that they had thought through this and they had offered this and uh I said, "Absolutely, 
I would love that. I think that's just the the best." And I said, "But I can't give the speech. I can't give the talk." 
And uh Jeremy, the kind of guy he is, he said he would do it. 
>> We lost a loved one. Her name was Carol, the spouse of Reed, the mother of Katie and Ellie.

And you spell that C A R R O L L. 
>> When Jeremy spelled Carol's name, C A R R O L L. I think for me that's when I uh was overwhelmed with emotion and I 
looked over and Christina was crying. 
I put my hand down on Jeremy's hand as he was still talking. It was right there on that rail and uh he I could just tell he was trembling and uh and we all pretty much broke down right there. 
And uh just for me personally, that was that was kind of the pinnacle moment of the mission for me. 
That was I think where the four of us were the most forged, the most bonded, and we came out of that really focused on that day ahead. 
I think that was a very caging moment for
