Now, I'm not out to please the masses and get recognized. I'm more for making a positive impact on my family, friends, and students. This means I'll be forgotten within 5 years of death, but that doesn't really matter to me. If I can be a positive influence on someone right now, that's what I find important.

I don't that's necessarily true. My grandfather fit exactly what you just said about being a spectator, but it would suprise you how well he was remembered. I was amazed at how many people showed up to pay their respects at his wake and funeral. If I run into anyone who was there, they still tell me about how big of an impact he had on them. So it is possible to not have a huge impact overall, but to have enough little impacts that allow you to be remembered.
I can tell you right now that you and JJ have had a very positive impact in quite a few lives.

Spectator. I try to do what I can for people, especially those close to me, but I don't think any of it is a particularly big deal.

Nothing in particular, just to be remembered in a positive way.
