Does his impact depreciate the value of his life? Is his life invalid because he did not make an impact in your life. Pure ignorance. Death is death, just like if you died, there would be many who didn't know you either. But that doesn't take away from your value. A life is a life. Whether you found him influential or not, there are people who love him and think he's the greatest man alive. Think! Sit down and think before you type.
