35 So every time you turn on a light, think of Thomas
Edison and remember everything he gave us.
36 One of the greatest tributes to his work came on the day
of his funeral in 1931. President Herbert Hoover asked the
entire country to honor Edison by turning off the lights for
a minute of darkness.
37 People everywhere honored a lifelong career filled with
important inventions and innovations-a career that began
in the small home laboratory of a young boy with lots of
ambition and dreams.
