R.I.P. Professor Y

I went to the YMCA this morning and saw a sign that said, "Rest in Peace Peter Hansen, 1916-2006." He was an elder gentlemen (obviously), that reminded me a lot of Professor Farnsworth of Futurama fame:
What I will look like in 4 years
He had liver spots and everything. But I didn't realize the guy was 88 years old when I first saw him at the gym; I mean, I knew he was old, but not that old. I can't imagine going to the gym when I'm 38 years old, let alone 88. He always said hi to me, even though he had no idea who I was. I haven't seen him for a while, and now I know why. Regardless, he's a good inspiration and I hope I get to live a nice full life.
